DO NATURAL TREATMENTS WORK FOR THE BPD? Do Natural Treatments Work for the BPD? Ask The Doctor Dr. Leland Heller Biological Unhappiness Do Natural Treatments Work for the BPD? Do Natural Treatments Work for the BPD? DO NATURAL TREATMENTS WORK FOR THE BPD? Do Natural Treatments Work for the BPD? Question: I have an emotionally unstable personality disorder – BPD.  I would like to know your views on “natural” treatments such as meditation, hypotherapy (is that even safe with an actual mind/mental disorder?) and such.  When I asked my psychiatrist he laughed at me and said they did not work.  I have tried many medications but they didn’t help much.  I also hate to feel drugged and “toxic” and I am a great believer in the natural methods so think they could really work for me…kind of mind over matter. Kind regards. Dr. Heller’s Answer: I would be thrilled if “natural” treatments worked for the BPD, but they don’t.  I’ve seen countless individuals who have tried St. John’s Wort, MSM, herbal therapy, Chinese medicine, acupuncture, meditation, decades of counseling, alcohol, marijuana, massage, crystals, hanging upside down, deep breathing, etc.  Just taking charge of your life helps for a while, but the underlying neurological instability remains, and the symptoms will eventually come back.  The same thing occurs with falling in love – temporary brain chemical changes make the BPD symptoms go away for a while.  The glial cells have to work better and the stress induced dopamine induced dysphoria (anxiety, rage, depression and despair) has to be stopped.
