What is border line personality disorder?



Answers:
Borderline personality disorder is often a devastating mental condition, both for the people who have it and for those around them.

People diagnosed with borderline personality disorder live in a world of inner and outer turmoil. They have difficulty regulating their emotions and are often in a state of upheaval. They have distorted images of themselves, often feeling worthless and fundamentally bad or damaged.

And while they yearn for loving relationships, people with borderline personality disorder typically find that their anger, impulsivity, stormy attachments and frequent mood swings push others away.

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) was designed specifically to treat the disorder. DBT uses a skills-based approach to teach people how to regulate their emotions, tolerate distress and improve relationships.

I think that pretty well describes the messed-up vigilantes down at the Mexican/Arizona border.
Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is defined within psychiatry and related fields as a disorder characterized primarily by emotional dysregulation, extreme "black and white" thinking (believing that something is one of only two possible things, and ignoring any possible "in-betweens"), and turbulent relationships.
Borderline personality disorder, also known as BPD, is a serious mental illness characterized by pervasive instability in moods, interpersonal relationships, self-image, and behavior. This instability often disrupts family and work life, long-term planning, and the individual's sense of self-identity. There are a ton of websites out there with really good information, much more then I can provide you with. and I am a diagnosed borderline.
People with borderline personalities are very difficult to be around. They are deceptive, manipulitive and for lack of a better description, ar the type who keep mess going.
