Love Is The Cure

LITC is an emerging San Diego based social enterprise committed to empowering people with borderline personality disorder. We are on the forefront of the BPD awareness movement—establishing alliances with the leading experts,organizations,and influencers in the BPD community. Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is one of the most controversial diagnoses in psychology today.Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is a mood disorder disorder that typically involves unusual levels of instability in mood; "black and white" thinking, chaotic and unstable interpersonal relationships, self-image, identity, and behavior; as well as a disturbance in the individual's sense of self.
