Megan Fox and Borderline Personality Disorder Reexamined
A little while ago, I wrote a piece on Megan Fox and her statements in an interview that she was considering the possibility that she had a “borderline” personality. I got several reactions that she probably didn’t know what she was talking about or that she was merely emulating/reflecting her “heroine” – Marilyn Monroe. (Fox has a tattoo of Marilyn Monroe on the right forearm). I read the interview with Fox in “Rolling Stone” this month and found that, if she was being honest in the interview, there is a distinct possibility that she does have BPD. Here are some of the salient points… In “When Hope is Not Enough,”…

Lindsay Lohan and BPD (maybe but not for sure)
OK readers, now is the time to revisit Lindsay (I think I was spelling her first name wrong for a while there) Lohan and possible BPD. She has all of the classic signs of the disorder. I was struck by this quote: “Sam and Lindsay are speaking,” the source tells PEOPLE. “But Sam has begged Lindsay to get help.” “Lindsay, despite appearances, is insecure and has relied on Samantha and their relationship to build her up,” explains the pal. “Lindsay barely sleeps, which explains a lot of her behavior. She’s exhausted. She can’t even sit down for a minute without pacing around the room. It’s really sad.” Sam is begging…

Andy Dick… Wow, what a mess
Well, I haven’t written anything EVER about Andy Dick… but I read an article today that puts him high on the celebrity BPD meter… I also watch the YouTube clip of him being thrown off of Jimmy Kimmel’s show. Here is the article and the clip: Comedian Andy Dick arrested in drug, sexual battery case in Murrieta From the Associated Press Andy Dick, 42, was arrested today on suspicion of drug use and sexual battery in Murrieta.
