What Does BPD Look Like?
According to the National Education Alliance for Borderline Personality Disorder, more than 14 million American adults experience BPD every year. Women and men are affected equally by BPD.
Diagnosis is often complicated since BPD rarely stands alone. People with BPD often struggle with co-occurring disorders, including substance abuse and addiction, eating disorders, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and other personality disorders. More than half of those with BPD also suffer from a major depressive disorder.
Those struggling with borderline personality disorder experience many of the following symptoms:
- Difficulty regulating emotions
- Extreme anger, anxiety, and depression
- Engaging in compulsive, and often dangerous, behaviors, including substance abuse, binge eating, and self-harmful behaviors
- Paranoia or dissociation
- Tumultuous relationships
- Frantic attempts to avoid abandonment, both real and imagined

Borderline Personality Disorder FAQs
The most important thing to remember if you’re suffering from borderline personality disorder is that it’s not your fault. Research from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) suggests the exact causes of BPD remain unknown, though both environmental and biological factors are thought to play a role. No specific gene has been shown to directly cause BPD, but various genes have been identified as playing a role in its development. The brain’s functioning, seen in MRI testing, is often different in people with BPD, suggesting a neurological basis for the disorder.
Self-injurious behavior on its own doesn’t lead to suicide. However, people diagnosed with borderline personality disorder may engage in a variety of life-threatening behaviors. These include burning and cutting to help express or regulate emotions, or as a form of self-punishment. If you or someone you know is causing self-inflicted harm, it’s vital to seek borderline personality disorder treatment immediately.
The American Journal of Psychiatry reports that while borderline personality disorder is a serious mental illness, it’s by no means a life sentence. Research has shown that the prognosis for BPD has improved over the past decade. With proper BPD treatment, almost half of those diagnosed with BPD will not meet the criteria for diagnosis just two years later. Ten years later, 88% of people who were once diagnosed with BPD no longer meet criteria for a diagnosis. With the right kind of treatment at BPD residential treatment centers, including the best therapy for BPD, your symptoms can improve, too.
Common symptoms of BPD include intense fear of abandonment, unstable relationships, impulsive behaviors, self-harm or suicidal behaviors, mood swings, chronic feelings of emptiness, difficulty controlling anger, and severe dissociation or paranoia in response to stress.
BPD can make daily life challenging due to emotional instability and intense mood swings. Relationships may become volatile, and individuals might struggle with maintaining employment or responsibilities. Difficulty regulating emotions can lead to impulsive behaviors, self-harm, and frequent crises that impact personal and professional life.
Untreated BPD can lead to ongoing emotional turmoil, worsening symptoms, and an increased risk of self-harm or suicide. Relationships may continue to be strained, and substance abuse or other harmful behaviors could develop. Early intervention with treatment can greatly improve long-term outcomes.
