[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a pattern of abnormal behavior characterized by extreme fear of abandonment; unstable relationships with other people, sense of self, or emotions; feelings of emptiness; frequent dangerous behavior; and self-harm.[3] Symptoms may be triggered by seemingly normal events.[3] This pattern of behavior typically begins by early adulthood, and occurs across a [b]variety of situations[/b].[4] People with BPD often engage in idealization and devaluation of others, alternating between [b]high positive regard and great disappointment.[/b][5] Substance abuse, depression, and eating disorders commonly co-exist with borderline personality disorder.[3] About 6% die by suicide.[3]
usually cuased by severe trauma in childhood, although not everyone with trauma has BP[/quote]
This is why we have those smug people called doctors :lol: How in the world can you diagnose a person based on the description above?[/quote]

Because it is so extreme. [b]typically borderline people are always meeting new people, getting very close[/b], then very angry, then a lot of drama, and all the while substance abuse. It is not that common, but a professional knows it when they see it. It is NOT your PITA MIL.[/quote]

From reading about the disorder, I don't think this is typical at all.[/quote]
