    Amy Winehouse Crops Up Again

    March 6, 2008 / 2 Comments

    This morning I read an article about Amy Winehouse supposedly putting a cigarette out on her cheek. Of course Winehouse is the #1 candidate on my list of possible celebrity Borderline Personality Sufferers. Here is a copy of the article and a link to one version on the Internet: Singer reported to have self-harmed in restaurant Amy Winehouse reportedly stubbed a cigarette out on her own cheek in a restaurant. The troubled singer was apparently having a crafty fag as she sat with pals in a London eatery last week. But when a waitress asked her to stop smoking, it’s claimed she pushed the burning ciggie into her own skin.…

    Does Britney Spears have Borderline Personality Disorder?

    January 8, 2008 / 21 Comments

    It was widely reported in the press after Britney Spear’s “breakdown” and stand-off with the police over the return of her children that she has “a bipolar disorder.” See this excerpt from TMZ.com: TMZ reported that Spears’ friends “have known for a while that Britney has a very serious mental condition — likely a bipolar disorder that is now in the red zone.” I think the language here is quite important. Borderline Personality Disorder is so maligned that not a single celebrity has come out and stated that they have the disorder. Bipolar disorder, on the other hand, is not considered just the result of “bad behavior” – it is…

    Amy Winehouse and Husband Battle it out

    August 24, 2007 / No Comments

    From BiPolar and BPD ramblings: Amy Winehouse and her husband basically got into a fist fight last night which left them both bloodied and bruised. Apparently Amy’s husband walked in on her cutting herself and about to do drugs with a prostitute when he intervened. The Daily Mail reports: At around 2.30am, said guests, the fight sounded like it had restarted – then Miss Winehouse was seen sprinting down the corridor to the lift, pursued by her badly bleeding husband. One guest who got into the lift to reception at the same time said they started shouting at each other. “Amy was in floods of tears. This guy was screaming…

    Famous People who Cut themselves

    June 7, 2007 / 13 Comments

    A link from self-injury.net, a site by a young self-injurer. These biographies were written by the author of the site. They include: Diana, Princess of Wales Colin Farrell Fiona Apple Johnny Depp Courtney Love Angelina Jolie Amy Winehouse (RIP) Pete Doherty Lindsay Lohan Darrell Hammond (recently added because he came out and said he cut himself) and others I wonder if any of these people are also borderlines. No star is willing to come out and publicly say they are. I have updated the link to go to the appropriate page. http://self-injury.net/media/famous-self-injurers [amazonshowcase_aae6001f3f5766bb5a55f3fb147c3088] [amazonshowcase_fca1b973869626c648b4713f66c7a2c8] No related posts.

    Courtney Love a Borderline?

    February 21, 2006 /

    From an article about Courtney Love’s troubles: “”People like her are extraordinarily emotionally immature,”” according to Sheenah Hankin, a psychotherapist who says Love’s behavior resembles that of a typical “”borderline personality disorder.”” “”These people throw tantrums and don’t take care of themselves at all,”” she adds. “”When they’re in a crisis, they don’t seek help, they just freak out.”” There is no “”poster child”” for BPD. No celebrity has come out and said: “”I have borderline personality disorder.”” Sure, some famous people have been identified with bi-polar disorder (some examples from a Google search: Ben Stiller, Dick Cavett, Jonathan Winters, Carrie Fisher, Sting) …but not BPD. Why?http://www.signonsandiego.com/uniontrib/20040718/news_1a18clove.html No related posts.
