In this deeply personal episode of The Boakyewaa Glover Show, I publicly discuss my diagnosis of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) and share what living with this highly misunderstood condition is really like.BPD is often described online using words such as manipulative, toxic, dramatic, unstable, or dangerous. But those labels tell only a fraction of the story—and often miss the humanity of the people living with this condition.In this episode, I discuss:• What Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is• The connection between BPD and trauma• Quiet or high-functioning BPD• Emotional intensity, rejection sensitivity, and fear of abandonment• The impact of heartbreak on individuals with BPD• Shame, self-worth, and emotional regulation• Why compassion matters more than stigma• My own journey of healing through therapy, mindfulness, medication, and self-awarenessThis episode is not intended to excuse harmful behavior. It is intended to create understanding, empathy, and a more nuanced conversation about one of the most stigmatized mental health conditions in the world.Whether you live with BPD, love someone who does, work in mental health, or simply want to better understand the human experience behind mental illness, I hope this conversation offers insight and hope.If this episode resonates with you, please like, comment, subscribe, and share.#BorderlinePersonalityDisorder #BPD #MentalHealth #Trauma #ComplexPTSD #ChronicDepression #MentalHealthAwareness #TheBoakyewaaGloverShow

For far too long, obesity has been treated as a personal failure instead of what science increasingly recognizes it to be: a complex chronic medical condition influenced by hormones, metabolism, genetics, stress, mental health, and biology.In this episode of The Boakyewaa Glover Show, I sit down with two incredible medical experts:• Prof. Josephine Akpalu — Endocrinologist & Diabetologist• Dr. Abigail Donkor — Pharmacist & Medical Weight Loss SpecialistTogether, we unpack:• the hormonal science behind weight gain• insulin, cortisol, estrogen, leptin & metabolism• menopause, stress & chronic dieting• the stigma and emotional toll of obesity• GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Wegovy & Mounjaro• myths, side effects & realistic expectations• and what a compassionate, science-based approach to weight management should actually look likeThis is one of the most important conversations I’ve had on the show because obesity is not simply about discipline or motivation. It is deeply connected to biology, access, mental health, and long-term care.#Obesity #Hormones #MedicalWeightLoss #MentalHealthAwareness #Wellness
