Personality Disorder begins PRIOR TO CONCEPTION!!!! [View all]

If you ever wondered why it is that some things that the "psychoanalytic tradition" pushes seem crazier than the people with mental disorders it purports to treat consider this...

ABSTRACT: This paper is a narrative, exploratory, descriptive, and investigative profile of Borderline Personality Disorder (BP). Its purpose is to expand the existing description of behavioral characteristics of this disorder and to include a deeper emotional and interpersonal understanding of borderline symptomatology. The self and object-relations schools are recognized but treated as being limited to the post-birth biographical experiences. This study includes the expanded perinatal, preconception, transpersonal elements and interpersonal aspects of Borderline Personality etiology.

Causes of Borderline Personality Disorder

Fetal Rejection

The male part of the Self begins its physical journey in the body of the father and the female Self comes to life in the body and egg of the mother. In the BP the father's sperm seeks connection, acceptance, and impregnation, but mother's egg does not. The egg vehemently fights to reject the sperm. If the mother does not want the pregnancy and/or rejects the father and his child the child will feel unacceptable and unwanted, and will identify with feelings of nonexistence, such as "I'm not wanted . . . I'm nothing," and so on. As such, for the borderline, conception is not an act of love.

A fetus conceived in love and passion will feel wanted and esteemed. But, for the borderline, there has never been this ideal, environmental circumstance attached to conception. The will to live and survive originates from the real self, from a soul existing in perfect being and essence, even before taking physical form. It is the will to survive that allows the infant to endure the life-threatening traumas that are imminently faced in the womb.

The previous piece of pseudo-science comes out of the International Primal Association, an off-shoot of Object-Relations and Self psychology which is based on notions of socio-psychological development.

A central concept in that area is the notion of narcissistic wounds that occur in early infancy...

Perhaps owing to the difficulty in anyone actually remembering and communicating psychic trauma from their verbally challenged infancy, this field has had to build it's theory on things other actual experience of patients. That 'theory' appears to be going deep into what might be charitably called absolute pseudo-science.


I give you as evidence: gametes of those who will become borderline personalities have spiritual being, and the ova that reject connection and implantation by sperm.

Completely genetics-free concepts of inheritance wherein male attributes of Self are transmitted only by sperm and female attributes of Self are transmitted only by ova!

But then what the heck do we really know about the laws of spiritual inheritance?!
