Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is characterised by intense and unpredictable emotions and an unstable sense of self. People who live with BPD can sometimes struggle to maintain relationships and often deal with strong fears about being rejected or abandoned. Sometimes, their actions can seem reckless or impulsive to others.
BPD symptoms can make daily life difficult, but they can be managed well with treatment, tools and support.
This pamphlet provides useful information on the symptoms, causes and treatments as well as how you could support a family member or friend who may be living with BPD.
