Understanding Borderline Personality Disorder
Labels and mental health diagnoses can be either freeing in their ability to make sense of complex feelings and symptoms, or restrictive, as each tends to come with its own special stigma. At Thrive Treatment, our clinical team is trained to assess and diagnose a wide range of mental health conditions, including borderline personality disorder (BPD). We can also help you look beyond the diagnosis to develop a personalized treatment plan through effective BPD treatment in Los Angeles.

Substance Use and Borderline Personality Disorder Treatment in Southern California
While BPD comes with a myriad of challenges and intense emotions on its own, 78% of adults with borderline personality disorder also develop a substance-related disorder or addiction at some point in their lives. Unfortunately, drug use can further fuel a person’s borderline personality disorder symptoms more than BPD patients who aren’t using drugs or alcohol, adding new challenges and trials to emotional regulation.
If you are struggling with both borderline personality disorder and addiction, you are not alone. At Thrive Treatment, we help clients not just overcome their addiction but improve their overall physical and mental health.
We offer dual-diagnosis treatment to help any client struggling with addiction and mental health conditions. Our borderline personality disorder treatment in Los Angeles is just one of the many mental illness conditions we treat.

Contact us today to learn more about our treatment programs for yourself or a loved one so you can confidently take your first step into recovery at our Los Angeles drug rehab center.

Understanding Borderline Personality Disorder
Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a mental illness that impacts the way someone thinks and feels about themselves and others. A person struggling with borderline personality disorder often struggles with their self-image and has difficulty controlling their emotions.
Because borderline personality disorder makes it difficult to regulate emotions, it can make it challenging to keep and maintain strong, healthy interpersonal relationships. Unstable relationships, suicidal behavior, compromised sense of self, feelings of emptiness, self-harming behavior, and more are common. Binge eating and eating disorders are also common in those living with the effects of BPD, making professional treatment necessary to manage the many ways in which BPD impacts daily life and wellness.
If you are struggling with BPD, you may struggle with impulsive behaviors, mood swings, and a fear of abandonment. A lack of dedicated coping strategies to manage these symptoms can make one look for strategies to mask and relieve their symptoms. Unfortunately, many people with BPD turn to drugs or alcohol as a means to temporarily mask their symptoms.
Addressing BPD is challenging, but there are always new strategies and individualized treatment options to manage the symptoms of borderline personality disorder at Thrive Treatment, helping to get to the underlying needs for effective, transformative treatment.
Professional borderline personality disorder treatment is essential. We help clients struggling with BPD and addiction get the comprehensive care they need to overcome addiction and better manage self-destructive behaviors and symptoms of BPD so they can live happier, healthier, more balanced lives.

Borderline Personality Disorder & Addiction
Many people struggling with borderline personality disorder, unfortunately, never get the professional help that they need to manage their symptoms for a healthier life. Not treating your mental illness may lead you to abuse drugs or alcohol as a means to temporarily ease your symptoms, despite negative consequences. However, while drugs or alcohol may temporarily reduce your symptoms, they do not treat the root cause of your mental illness.
As a result, people who abuse drugs or alcohol as a means to cope with their mental illness only experience temporary relief, if any at all. Not to mention, many people end up developing a dependency on drugs because they may experience short-term relief from their BPD symptoms, even as their BPD symptoms persist and may even worsen in time.
If you are struggling with co-occurring borderline personality and substance use disorder, it’s essential you seek the support of dedicated dual diagnosis treatment to manage your mental illness and overcome addiction once and for all.

Common Causes of Borderline Personality Disorder
There is no single cause for developing a borderline personality disorder. However, there are several potential causes or risk factors that can contribute to developing a borderline personality disorder. These include:
- Genetics: If you have a family history of personality disorders or other mental health disorders, this may increase your risk of developing BPD.
- Environmental Factors: If you had a stressful childhood, such as being physically or sexually abused as a child, this may increase your risk of developing BPD.
- Brain Abnormalities: If you have a brain abnormality that impacts certain brain chemicals that regulate mood, this may increase your risk of developing BPD.

treatment options
BPD Treatment in Los Angeles Offers Several Treatment Options
Our BPD treatment in Los Angeles offers a range of treatment options to help manage your BPD symptoms while also overcoming your addiction. We provide comprehensive dual-diagnosis treatment for all patients struggling with mental illness and addiction to maintain long-term sobriety. Each client’s recovery journey is uniquely different. That’s why, at Thrive Treatment, we offer versatile care tailored to each patient’s needs, blending evidence-based treatments and therapies with personalized holistic treatment modalities to address each person’s unique needs and goals.
Psychotherapy, or talk therapy, is one of the most well-known and effective treatment options we offer. Evidence-based psychotherapy, like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), is the gold standard of effective BPD treatment. At our borderline personality disorder treatment in Los Angeles, clients can be a part of one-on-one counseling or group-based therapy. Each option can help clients better understand their negative thought patterns and learn more about their conditions. Group therapy can be extremely beneficial as clients often share similar experiences with other members of the group, which helps them feel less alone and gain genuine connection and understanding from peers.
In individual therapy sessions, patients can more closely walk through their negative thought patterns and behaviors with a highly trained mental health professional who can help them better manage their BPD symptoms, explore new ways of thinking, and increase mindfulness, both during their stay in residential treatment or in ongoing outpatient care. Plus, during individual therapy sessions, clients can learn more about their addiction triggers so they can effectively maintain a long-term life of sobriety while finding more healthy, positive coping strategies to manage BPD symptoms.
If a client is struggling with borderline personality disorder and substance use disorder, we ensure they receive concurrent care for both their mental illness and their addiction. This is because both conditions can oftentimes exacerbate the other condition. Likewise, failure to treat one condition but not the other can increase a client’s risk of relapse.
Our borderline personality disorder treatment in Los Angeles provides comprehensive addiction and mental health treatment for all clients, wherever they may be in their recovery journey. Thrive Treatment’s team of compassionate addiction specialists and mental health professionals will help guide you on your recovery journey to not just overcome your addiction but live a happier, healthier, more fulfilling quality of life. We also understand that these challenges are rarely isolated, working with those living with these conditions and family members in effective family therapy for lasting change and healing at home.
