Though our minds are great places to solve complex problems, they're borderline destructive when it comes to handling fear and anxiety.

In Don’t Feed the Elephants!, Sarah explores how you can address the true elephant in the room: avoidance.

Manage BPD instead of letting it control you by harnessing the power of acceptance, mindfulness, and thinking strategies that are based on facts—not emotions! Understanding what you are feeling, responding to stressful situations calmly, and building strong, lasting bonds with others can all seem beyond your reach when you have BPD.
