Borderline Revisited 3.41.0.132 [free]

Borderline personality disorder or BPD affects roughly 18 million Americans or almost 6% of the adult population in any given year. It is arguably the most devastating and
emotionally agonizing of any psychiatric disorder. At the same time BPD is the most stigmatized and misunderstood mental health disorder.
For many years it was believed that borderline personality disorder only affected young women. We now know that both men and women of all ages are affected with BPD. One of
the things that makes borderline personality such a devastating disorder is the high rate of self-injury and suicidal behavior. And because BPD has a “death by suicide” rate
of about 10% it has the highest mortality rate of any mental health condition.
This app is not merely a resource for the curious to learn about the symptoms of BPD and various treatments, it is also a vehicle to bring about awareness of the reality of
living with borderline personality disorder. In addition its purpose is to provide resources to those suffering with BPD and to the people who love them.
This app will explore all aspects of borderline personality disorder beginning in the 1930s when it was first introduced by psychologist Adolf Stern. Stern described patients
with characteristics that did not fit neatly into existing diagnostic categories, and his work laid the foundation for understanding what would later be recognized as
BPD.
The American Psychiatric Association classifies borderline personality disorder not as a mental health condition like bipolar disorder or major depressive disorder but as a
personality disorder. A personality disorder can be defined as an enduring and pervasive pattern of thinking, feeling, and behaving which deviates markedly from the social
norm and causes significant personal distress as well as social and occupational impairment. Personality disorders tend to be treatment resistant.
The app will provide in depth information on all aspects of borderline personality disorder including the symptoms, behaviors, traits, possible causes, complications of the
disorder, coping strategies, treatment options, as well as personal stories from those who treat BPD and those who are battling BPD.
Most importantly the app will present information in a sensitive and thoughtful manner with an emphasis on understanding, coping, healing, recovering, and even "cure."
