Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is a well-known psychological condition, but one that is often misunderstood. Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is frequently depicted in the media, displaying a person who is out of control, crazy or emotionally unstable. However, the media depictions of Borderline Personality Disorder tend to be over-the-top caricatures of what BPD is actually like. This video talks about the nine common characteristics of Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), including:
1) Frantic efforts to avoid real or imagined abandonment.
2) People with Borderline Personality Disorder can have a pattern of unstable and intense interpersonal relationships.
3) Persistently unstable self-image or sense of self.
4) Impulsivity in areas that are potentially self-damaging, such as gambling, spending money irresponsibly, binge eating, abusing drugs or alcohol, engaging in unsafe sexual practices.
5) Recurrent suicidal behaviours, gestures, threats or self-mutilating behaviour (e.g., cutting or burning).
6) Severe emotional instability and reactivity of mood.
7) Chronic feelings of emptiness.
8) Intense anger and difficulty controlling anger.
9) During extreme stress, people with Borderline Personality Disorder can experience brief periods of paranoia or dissociation.

For individuals with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) it can lead to a number of difficulties including problems with close or intimate relationships or friendships. People with Borderline Personality Disorder can experience a pattern of undermining themselves the moment they almost achieve their goals. They can feel more secure with pets versus interpersonal relationships, due to the fear of potential abandonment in interpersonal relationships. Finally, it is not uncommon for a person with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) to experience recurrent job loss, interrupted education and separation or divorce.
