Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is a mental health condition marked by pervasive instability in mood, behavior, self-image, and interpersonal relationships. Individuals with BPD often experience intense emotions, have difficulty regulating their emotions, and struggle with a persistent fear of abandonment.

Symptoms of Borderline Personality Disorder:

• Intense Mood Swings: Individuals with BPD may experience rapid and extreme shifts in mood, ranging from intense anger, anxiety, or depression to moments of euphoria or intense happiness.
• Fear of Abandonment: A pervasive fear of abandonment is a hallmark symptom of BPD, leading individuals to engage in frantic efforts to avoid real or perceived rejection or abandonment.
• Unstable Relationships: Individuals with BPD often have tumultuous relationships characterized by idealization and devaluation. They may alternate between seeing others as all good or all bad, leading to frequent conflicts and instability.
• Impulsive Behavior: Impulsivity is common in individuals with BPD, manifesting as reckless behaviors such as substance abuse, binge eating, reckless driving, or self-harming behaviors.
• Distorted Self-Image: Individuals with BPD may struggle with a distorted sense of self, feeling uncertain about their identity, values, or goals in life.
• Chronic Feelings of Emptiness: Many individuals with BPD experience chronic feelings of emptiness or boredom, leading to a sense of inner void that is difficult to fill.
• Dissociation: Some individuals with BPD may experience episodes of dissociation, during which they feel disconnected from reality, their thoughts, feelings, or sense of identity.
