Extractions: RFA for Translational Borderline Personality Research Released Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is a severe, chronic, disabling, and potentially lethal psychiatric condition. People who suffer with this disorder have extreme and long standing instability in their emotional lives, as well as in their behavior and their self-image. This is a common disorder affecting 2% of the general population. The best evidence indicates that about 11% of psychiatric outpatients and 19% of inpatients meet diagnostic criteria for BPD. Despite the devastating nature of this disorder, it has not received the scientific and clinical attention that other health and psychiatric problems of equal, or even lesser, level of disability have received. To learn more about BPD click here In 1999 the Borderline Personality Disorder Research Foundation (BPDRF) began a three year engagement with five centers: Cornell, Rockefeller and Oslo/Norway, Yale, Basel/Switzerland, and Freiburg/Germany. A three board organization comprised of 20 scientists, including three Nobel Prize Laureates, was established to supervise basic research in the field. The first three years of BPDRF's initiative have been very successful. Perhaps the most impressive success has been the National Institute of Mental Health's (NIMH) taking up research in the field via Requests for Applications (RFAs). Indeed, NIMH's participation is more than a private foundation might ever have hoped for.

Life At The Border: Borderline Personality Disorder
Dr. Leland Heller. Review of a book that explains borderline personality disorder as a medical disorder that is treatable.
http://www.angelfire.com/or/lifeattheborder/

Extractions: Life at the Border, Understanding and Recovering from the Borderline Personality Disorder " by Leland Heller M.D., is a reference book at the NIMH (National Institute of Mental Health) and was placed on their recommended reading list. Dr. Heller indicates in his book " Life at the Border ," that borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a medical disorder and that the "right medications in the right sequence, combined with the right therapy and brain retraining works for those who want it.' Leland M. Heller, M.D. Finally there is a book that offers hope in recovering from the BPD. "The evidence suggests that this disorder is medical/neurological with psychological ramifications. The approach developed by Dr. Heller has been remarkably helpful with borderline patients... With the introduction of effective medications, psychotherapy time is shortened significantly, and the opportunities for therapeutic success are greatly enhanced. Patients and their families can live a more peaceful existence as the borderline goes through recovery."

Extractions: Personal Borderline Story about how it is to live with Borderline Personality Disorder The core disorder in BPD is emotional dysregulation. Emotional dysregulation is viewed as a joint outcome of biological disposition, environmental context, and the transaction between the two during development. The theory asserts that borderline individuals have difficulties in regulating several, if not all, emotions. This systemic dysregulation is produced by emotional vulnerability and by maladaptive and inadequate emotion modulation strategies. From: Skills Training Manual for Treating Borderline Personality Disorder. By Marsha Linehan. 1993 The symptoms of borderline patients are similar to those for which most people seek psychiatric help: depression, mood swings, the use and abuse of drugs and alcohol as a means of trying to feel better; obsessions, phobias, feelings of emptiness and loneliness, inability to tolerate being alone, problems about eating. The one word that best characterizes borderline personality is "instability." Their emotions are unstable, fluctuating wildly for no discernible reason. Their thinking is unstablerational and clear at times, quite psychotic at other times. Their behavior is unstable, often with periods of excellent conduct, high efficiency and trustworthiness alternating with outbreaks of babyishness, suddenly quitting a job, withdrawing into isolation, failing.

What is borderline personality disorder (BPD)? A borderline writes Being a borderline feels like eternal hell. Nothing less. Pain
http://www.bpdcentral.com/resources/basics/main.shtml

Extractions: "Being a borderline feels like eternal hell. Nothing less. Pain, anger, confusion, hurt, never knowing how I'm gonna feel from one minute to the next. Hurting because I hurt those who I love. Feeling misunderstood. Analyzing everything. Nothing gives me pleasure. Once in a great while I will get "too happy" and then anxious because of that. Then I self-medicate with alcohol. Then I physically hurt myself. Then I feel guilty because of that. Shame. Wanting to die but not being able to kill myself because I'd feel too much guilt for those I'd hurt, and then feeling angry about that so I cut myself or O.D. to make all the feelings go away. Stress!" Therapists use a book called "Diagnostic and Statistical Manual" (DSM) to make mental health diagnoses. They've outlined nine traits that borderlines seem to have in common; the presence of five or more of them may indicate BPD.

http://www.palace.net/~llama/psych/bpd.html

Extractions: Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is one of the most controversial diagnoses in psychology today. Since it was first introduced in the DSM, psychologists and psychiatrists have been trying to give the somewhat amorphous concepts behind BPD a concrete form. Kernberg's explication of what he calls Borderline Personality Organization is the most general, while Gunderson, though a psychoanalyst, is considered by many to have taken the most scientific approach to defining BPD. The Diagnostic Interview for Borderlines and the DIB-Revised were developed from research done by Gunderson, Kolb, and Zanarini. Finally, there is the "official" DSM-IV definition. Some researchers, like Judith Herman, believe that BPD is a name given to a particular manifestation of post-traumatic stress disorder: in Trauma and Recovery, she theorizes that when PTSD takes a form that emphasizes heavily its elements of identity and relationship disturbance, it gets called BPD; when the somatic (body) elements are emphasized, it gets called hysteria, and when the dissociative/deformation of consciousness elements are the focus, it gets called DID/MPD. Others believe that the term "borderline personality" has been so misunderstood and misused that trying to refine it is pointless and suggest instead simply scrapping the term.

Extractions: * Frantic efforts to avoid real or imagined abandonment... Yes, though not always 'frantic', but it is like this (for me), it is very hard to be alone, paranoid thoughts enter my mind about all people I know and love (they only pretend they like me so they can use me, they are gonna leave me eventually, etc.), but at the same time, I can't stand to be around people for a long time....it's those permanent contradictory feelings that sometimes make me wanna rant and rave and trash everything around me!!!
