What Is BPD?

Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is one of the most serious clinical entities in existence. Under the umbrella of the label ‘serious syndromes’, there are only two more disorders: bipolarity and psychosis.

Sufferers of BPD experience extraordinary difficulties when it comes to interpersonal relationships. They often feel abandoned by those around them. Consequently, a lack of interpersonal stability is the norm rather than the exception. They tend to oscillate between two extremes, either praising or denigrating the people around them.
