Introduction[edit | edit source]

Borderline personality disorder is defined by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) as “a pervasive pattern of instability in interpersonal relationships, self-image, and affects, as well as marked impulsivity beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts.”[1]

The DSM categorizes borderline personality disorder as one of 10 personality disorders, which are separate mental illnesses that all cause difficulty with the patients ability to relate to others in healthy ways, resulting in distress or impact on functioning.[2] To note, the 2019 revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-11) does not recognize borderline personality disorder as a separate condition, instead classing all personality disorders as one condition classified by severity.[3]  However, at present borderline personality disorder is still treated as a recognized specific condition both in practice and in research.
