It's like saying if the therapy was bad, the whole therapist is a bad person. If I were a painter and I did a bad paint job, would anyone possibly die? No. But if I'm a therapist and I do a bad job of therapy, someone could very WELL die.
This is a serious responsibility and therapists have an as-yet unacknowledged responsibility to their patients. So maybe they are patients, not clients. Perhaps my ex-T was right all along, and I am a true Patient.
Although from what I understand of BPD, it's very treatable.
