SAN CLEMENTE, Calif., Feb. 22, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- The inaugural issue of 'Resilient Health' is now available.

As a complimentary monthly digital magazine, Resilient Health is designed to provide breaking news, clinical updates and detailed examinations of disorders and treatment methods.

What to expect when reading Resilient Health:

• Researched feature articles, interviews, programming messages and editorial series packaged with relevant news in the behavioral health industry
• Fresh perspectives on mental health and substance abuse issues
• At least one email per month with hyperlinks to the latest content

The first issue focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of borderline personality disorder (BPD), a common yet often undiagnosed and untreated mental health condition. BPD is caused by a combination of factors and can be moderate to severe in nature. In contrast to people with antisocial personality disorder, who often cause harm to others, people with BPD tend to cause problems for themselves. They are at high risk for suicide, unemployment, homelessness and societal ostracization. Fortunately, BPD and co-occurring disorders such as addiction can be treated with specialized forms of psychotherapy; find out about treatment options in this month's Resilient Health.

The February issue also includes discussion of how the behavioral health field can respond to the mushrooming opioid epidemic, the dangers of the drug U-47700 (also called U-4, Pink or Pinky) and an inspiring first-person story on one man's road to recovery from BPD and alcoholism.

Every issue of Resilient Health will provide professionals with informative articles, interviews and fresh perspectives on mental health and substance abuse issues, in addition to first-person patient stories, quizzes, fast facts, news updates and a section for reader comments and other general feedback.

The magazine is published by Sovereign Health, a leading national provider of behavioral health treatment services. For information about Resilient Health, visit www.reshealth.net, and to reach the editor, contact [email protected].
