Petulant Borderline Mother - Role-Play - 3 Versions - BPD
Here is my take on the petulant borderline (volatile) mother. BPD.
In this role play I create a scenario where a son is letting his mother know that he will need to introduce his new girlfriend to his father first due to circumstance.
The mother has a huge reaction and in that reaction we see borderline traits play themselves out : real or imagine abandonment, criticism, volatility, rage, character assassination, impulsivity, manipulation around self harm, provocation, false accusations, emotional blackmail, leverage, dependency, fragility, chaos manufacture
Also relevant are : enmeshment, boundaries, recovery, therapy session, consistency, role-play, fyp, tools, hacks, triggers, childhood trauma, inner child, inner child work, c-ptsd, ptsd, toxic parents, narcissistic abuse, assertion, healing, abusive parents, emotional abuse, childhood ptsd, repressed memories, hypervigilance, narcissistic parents, emotionally abusive parents, child abuse, narcissistic father, childhood emotional neglect, abuse, narcissistic mother, codependency, healthy parenting, parenting
I hope it is helpful and there will be a clinical analysis video follow up.
As you can see, while falling under Cluster B Symptoms, the Borderline disorder is very different from overt and or covert narcissism. In my mind, the disorder orbits around real or imagined abandonment (the narcissist doesn't need you in the end so much) and problems of conscientiousness (getting control of their own perception/reactions/emotions). However, a commonality is it does involve a lot of the drama switches, like with the narcissist.
