Abstract
This article draws on the power of creative methods to call for a more collaborative, ecological approach to awareness, education, and research analysis of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). Drawing on affect theory and empirical research using a co-creation methodology, we advocate for the power of peer-directed support provision for those experiencing BPD. Through recognition and advocacy for this emerging area, the article advances the ways in which more holistic, ecological protocols can help shift research into BPD from a deficit-framed diagnostic approach to a more strengths-based agentic approach that recognizes the wider context and multiple factors beyond the individual.
