Here is a quote written by Jonathan Kellerman, a clinical Psychologist: “The borderline patient is a therapist’s nightmare,…because borderlines never really get better. The best you can do is help them coast, without getting sucked into their pathology…They’re clinically depressed, the determinedly addictive, the compulsively divorced, living from one emotional disaster to the next. Bed hopers, stomach pumpers, freeway jumpers, and sad eye’s bench-sitters with arms stitched up like footballs and psychic wounds that can never be sutured. Their egos are as fragile as spun sugar, their psyches irretrievably fragmented, like a jigsaw puzzle with crucial pieces missing. They play roles with alacrity; excel at being anyone but themselves, crave intimacy but repel it when they find it. Some of them gravitate toward a stage or a screen; others do their acting in more subtle ways… Borderlines go from therapist to therapist, hoping to find a magic bullet for the crushing feelings of emptiness. They turn to chemical bullets, gobble tranquilizers and anti-depressants, alcohol and cocaine. Embrace gurus and heaven-huskers, any charismatic creep promising a quick fix of the pain. And they end up taking temporary vacations in psychiatric wards and prison cells, emerge looking good, raising everyone’s hopes. Until the next let down, real or imagined, the next excursion into self-damage. What they won’t do is change. (Kellerman,1989,pp.113-114)

Quote
BPD shares some features with bipolar disorder, for which it is frequently mistaken, but unlike bipolar disorder, BPD does not lead to lengthy cycles of highs and lows. Instead it causes more rapid mood swings. In less than 24 hours , people with BPD can experience euphoria, suicidal depression and everything in between. BPD is also characterized by a disturbing, but fascinating, dual nature: when people with the disorder are not experiencing flagrant symptoms, they often appear highly functional. “You could meet a patient with BPD in a social setting and not have an inkling that the patient had a major psychiatric disorder,” says psychiatrist Glen O. Gabbard of the Baylor College of Medicine. “The very next day the same patient could appear in an emergency room in a suicidal crisis and require hospitalization.”
