I’ve tried conventional therapists on BetterHelp but needless to say therapists for normal people are not specialized in this rare combination. It’s very interesting realizing how many people suffer from a combination of ASD BPD. My guess is that sometimes the rejection trauma from having autism or also CPTSD creates people who are on the spectrum and now also borderline.
Getting mental help can be so costly, so I’ve cycled through a few people who were not specialized in either of these disorders. Kind of like they had very basic and rudimentary assumptions of both and some even thinking they were mutual exclusive because of assumptions of autism being inherently asocial and unemotional while BPD being the opposite. So no luck with them
I’m just wondering if there is someone out there with both who have an amazing therapist with decent knowledge of both disorders (and maybe even how they interact.) Hopefully they also offer online sessions 😄 Thanks
