New research from Lillakliniken Psykiatri Cura.
We are excited to share our latest study on borderline personality disorder (BPD) and emotional vulnerability.
In this study, we investigated whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (taVNS) can influence emotional responses.
Our findings suggest that this method may:
• reduce emotional reactivity
• improve emotional regulation
• influence the body’s physiological stress systems.
This work also introduces a new model — the "Interoceptive Threshold Model" — to better understand emotional sensitivity in BPD.
