โœ๏ธThis survey has been created by a group of people who may attract the diagnosis of Borderline Personality Disorder or Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder. The group feels there are improvements that need to be made to mental health services in Edinburgh for people who may attract these diagnoses. We want to hear from other people to learn more about their experiences.

This survey is confidential and will be used to help create a report about mental health services for people with BPD/EUPD in Edinburgh and to help shape our advocacy work.

You can fill in the survey here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/XL38PF7 Any one who takes this survey is warmly invited to come along to the group and get involved in our advocacy work! ๐Ÿ’› If you would like to learn more about the group, this survey, or share your experiences in a different way, please get in touch with the group's facilitator Alex at alex@capsadvocacy.org
