Absolutely. So well written and encapsulated in one paragraph. Psychiatrists are the snake oil peddlers of the 21st century.

@LPXIOP Yet Piers Morgan got top tier, immediate treatment yesterday. The kind of medical care you get in this country now depends on WHO you are. Migrants and wealthy/famous people first, everyone else last, even children.

I didn’t think anything could be more excruciatingly embarrassing and eye-poppingly painful than fracturing a femur in a restaurant so badly I needed a new hip… but the Beckham family saga has managed it! What a repellent bunch of fake, narcissistic PR-obsessed twerps. 🙄

If UK news shows are going to give Nigel Farage a platform to spout this absolute boll**** about Brexit & the vaccine rollout (unchallenged) I’ll happily come back every week to correct it. We cannot allow him & others to rewrite history. If you agree RT this FACT CHECK widely

@psycheureka The confusion often stems from overlapping symptoms like mood swings. However, BPD is characterized by a consistent pattern of emotional instability across a variety of contexts, whereas Bipolar Type 2 involves distinct episodes of depression and hypomania. How can clinicians

Furthermore, consider evaluating the "Sleep-Energy Paradox" during assessment. In a hypomanic episode (BDII), the patient experiences a "decreased need for sleep" but remains highly functional and goal-directed. In the BPD phenotype, sleep disturbance is usually driven by

To differentiate BPD from BDII, clinicians must consider assessing the stability of the ‘Self’ during euthymic periods. A Bipolar patient typically returns to a consistent set of values and a stable identity when their mood stabilises. In BPD, the "identity void" persists even

What This Means for Clinicians Precise BPD-BDII diagnosis requires a shift from tracking mood intensity to analysing "interpersonal antecedents." Standard mood charts often fail because they lack the context of relational triggers. Misidentifying BPD as BDII leads to

Lastly, another female BPD phenotypic marker often mistaken for Bipolar cycling is "Identity Diffusion." While Bipolar patients retain a cohesive self-concept across cycles, BPD is defined by a chronic "Identity Void." This manifests as a fractured self-schema that exists

The BPD phenotype in women is defined by a "functional empathy mismatch" that mimics Bipolar irritability. Females often possess "hyper-affective empathy," mirroring others' pain with extreme intensity. This is paired with a deficit in "cognitive empathy," the ability to

Furthermore, female-specific BPD is defined by a heightened "Corticotrophin-Releasing Factor" (CRF) sensitivity. Females possess a higher expression of CRF receptors in the amygdala, which significantly increases fear consolidation. Meaning, the brain’s "alarm" is not only more

Another driver of misdiagnosis is oestrogen's role as a biological "amplifier" of the female stress response. Oestrogen increases the brain's sensitivity to external stressors, keeping the "fight or flight" system closer to its firing threshold. This creates a state of chronic
