Coping with Borderline Personality Disorder
Borderline personality disorder (BPD) can leave a person feeling emotionally unstable and in a constant state of panic that they will be abandoned by those closest to them. They may find that their relationships are a rollercoaster of emotions, live with an immense fear of abandonment, have poor self-esteem, and behave impulsively. Borderline personality disorder can typically begin in young adulthood and then persist into adulthood.

Coping with Alcohol and Substance Abuse Issues
There are many different situations that may cause somebody to begin using alcohol or other substances. They may be struggling with a health issue, dealing with a difficult time, or have fallen under pressure from their peers. Drugs and alcohol activate the reward circuit in the brain, which might be precisely why a person decides to give them a try. However, the more a person uses substances, the more of the substances their brain will need, which could cause a substance use disorder.
