Love Bombing and 90 Day (Deep Dive)(2021 Rerun)

Comments

My partner has been diagnosed with BPD by two separate psychiatrists, and we’ve been together since mid 2020. We have developed a new vocabulary to understand each other. Two big concepts we have: the equal and opposite rule, and series / parallel observations. The equal and opposite rule is based on two hemispheres of the brain. We can think Left brain to right and right brain to Left. We don’t need to know what the hemisphere are actually doing, only that there is a way of thinking that runs precisely equal and opposite to the way we are currently thinking. Series and parallel observations means that sometimes we are observing our partners over time, so it’s a series of events of one specific trait. Other times we are observing only in one instant of time but across multiple traits. Understanding these two concepts made a significant contribution for us.

I haven't had money for therapy, but I've done a lot of self-reflection and research, and ive seen a lot of symptoms of BPD in myself, and some symptoms of HPD in my partner from this episode. There was definitely love-bombing in the beginning of our relationship - on both sides, but we've been together 3 years now, and I think we've grown to genuinely love eachother. So is it possible to have these personality disorders and have a healthy relationship? Cause we are having a hard time communicating right now, but we'll be starting couples therapy soon

The last person I dated has bpd and wow did they fit the descriptions for love bombing. Very funny to listen to this in hindsight, great timing for this rerun. It was reassuring that all the advice you had for how to handle it was what I was doing.

Oof. This is hitting hard. My therapist labeled my ex as a "master manipulator". Everything you said about psychopathic love bombing really resonated. Thanks for this deep dive, this was fascinating even if it were a little bit triggering lol
