Struggling to Find a Therapist for Borderline

I have been shot down by 5 therapists in the last 48 hours. I feel so worthless as a person for not even being able to find a therapist correctly. I just want to get better and fix the chronic emptiness. I want pleasure from any activities again. Why is it so hard to find a therapist to treat borderline.

You can look on Psychology Today site and filter based on your diagnosis and which insurance and whatnot. I had the same issue as you. Make sure to do dbt therapy.

Its so sad that professionals will shy away from borderline personality disorder and most ive talked to wouldnt even discuss it when i knew i had it and tried to talk about my symptoms. Im struggling to find a psychiatrist that will listen to me after my psychiatrist from ages 12-18 stopped practicing.

I must be lucky because my BetterHelp therapist (who has a phD) actually helped diagnose my BPD and has stuck with me. They’re the only healthcare provider I’ve openly discussed my BPD with. Honestly had no idea therapists decline BPD clients. Cruel!
