The article presents the results of an empirical study of the psychological features of people with signs of borderline personality disorder. The study involved 40 people with signs of borderline personality disorder aged 14-56 years. According to the purpose of the study, the following tasks have been set: To investigate personality with borderline disorder; Identify and evaluate the neurotic states of a person with a borderline personality disorder; Conduct correlation analysis to investigate trends in the relationship between the indicator of the number of signs of borderline disorder and personal characteristics. The following research methods were used: 5PFQ Big Five technique (R. McCray, P. Costa), Clinical questionnaire for the detection and evaluation of neurotic conditions (KK Yakhin, DM Mendelevich) and Methods for diagnosing borderline personality disorder (TY Lasovskaya, CP Korolenko, SV Yaechnikov). The data obtained were subjected to a mathematical and statistical analysis procedure using the SPSS Statistic program. It is proved that emotional lability (instability of emotions), impulsiveness and self-harming behavior are important diagnostic criteria of a borderline personality disorder. High level of manifestation of signs of borderline personality disorder is accompanied by such mental states of disadaptation as neurotic depression, asthenia, tension and anxiety.

Defensive Mechanism

Narcissism is a growing issue in modern society. Society values external, objective successfulness, overindulgence in hedonism, and superficiality more than inner emotional life. Individuals in modern society are faced with an inner emptiness, resulting in narcissistic, grandiose fantasies sometimes being the last defensive mechanism against that painful confrontation. Persons with borderline disorder are envious because they lack the strength of the narcissists, causing them to feel even more empty and powerless. When there is trauma and guilt between two groups of people, it is hard to deal with the issues directly and it is easier to take a narcissistic position projecting everything that is negative onto a person with borderline disorder. This creates a hot-and-cold relationship that constantly replays itself. This brings us to the social aspects of the relationship between narcissistic and borderline personality disorder, which is the topic of this article. Creating an environment and culture of forgiveness is a difficult, but not impossible path. It consists of healthy mourning, sublimating aggression, and encouraging good experiences and new interests. Additionally, it is important to encourage socialization and dialogue because this is the only way to achieve the empathy and altruism that we are trying to evoke and which lead to a better relationship.

The Relationship

Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is a condition that is currently commonly found in daily psychiatric practice, and causes serious psychiatric disorders because it has an impact on the emergence of various other comorbid psychiatric disorders. The management of BPD is a challenge, because it is quite difficult and complex. Psychotherapy is an effective first-line therapy for BPD. Transference Focused Psychotherapy (TFP) is psychodynamic based psychotherapy that is specifically designed for BPD and is considered effective based on the specific psychopathology of BPD, namely the lack of identity integration. TFP focuses on the relationship between patient and therapist in sessions which have the aim of facilitating better behavioral control and increasing reflection and influencing regulation so as to produce identity integration that leads to a more coherent identity, better regulatory abilities, less self-destructive behavior. forming a more balanced and constant relationship, and increasing overall functioning.Keywords : Borderline Personality Disorder, Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Transference Focused Psychotherapy.

Research Studies

As many research studies show, a large portion of clinicians in the mental field hold pejorative attitudes toward those with borderline personality disorder. Oftentimes, these attitudes become manifest through the use of stigmatizing language to describe client behavior, such as “manipulative” and “attention seeking.” In this article, combining personal experience with research, I explore how stigmatizing language and attitudes affect the relationship between client and clinician and how such language impacts recovery. I offer for consideration solutions that might be more conducive to recovery and lead to a better working relationship between client and clinician.

The Relationship

Very few studies have focused on the relationship between cognitive functions and clinical features in borderline personality disorder (BPD). Subjects with BPD and healthy controls were administered the Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status, Trail Making Test A and B, and the Wisconsin Card Sorting Test. The Brief Symptom Inventory (BSI-53) was used to assess the severity of current symptoms. Attachment style was assessed with the Experiences in Close Relationship Questionnaire, identity integration with the Personality Structure Questionnaire, and other domains of personality dysfunction with the RUDE Scale for Personality Dysfunction. Patients with BPD performed significantly worse than healthy controls in all cognitive domains. Cognitive functions, particularly delayed memory and visuospatial abilities, displayed meaningful associations with trait-like clinical features, above the effect of global cognition and state psychopathology. These findings highlight the need to evaluate effects of cognitive rehabilitation on trait features among individuals with BPD.

The Relationship

Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) is a deliberate destruction of one’s own body tissue without suicidal intention that causes physical injury. NSSI is mostly found in adolescents or young adults (Paul, Tsypes, Eidlitz, Ernhout, & Whitlock, 2015). Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is one of the risk factors for developing NSSI. Individuals with borderline personality disorder also experience invalidation during their childhood, this can cause individuals with BPD to feel that they deserve to receive NSSI as a form of self-punishment (Sadeh et al., 2014). In addition, children who experience parental separation (through death, divorce or employment) have a higher risk factor for developing NSSI (Astrup, Pedersen, Mok, Carr, & Webb, 2017). A literature search was conducted in six databases, and a total of 20 relevant articles were found. The explanation of the relationship between non-suicidal self-injury, borderline personality disorder, and loss of or separation from a parent are explored in this study, in order to increase understanding of how NSSI behaviours can be prevented.

The Relationship

Individuals suffering from borderline personality disorder (BPD) experience difficulties with mindfulness. How mindfulness influences BPD symptoms, however, is still unknown. We hypothesized that the relationship between mindfulness and BPD symptoms would be mediated by self-compassion. In study 1, we recruited 29 individuals with BPD and 30 group-matched healthy controls. In study 2, we complemented our results with findings from a larger, nonclinical sample of 89 participants that were recruited during an open-house event at the local university. All participants completed questionnaires assessing self-compassion, mindfulness, BPD symptom severity, and emotion dysregulation. In both studies, self-compassion mediated the relationship between mindfulness and BPD symptom severity as well as between mindfulness and emotion dysregulation. Self-compassion seems to be one psychological process that could explain the relationship between mindfulness and BPD symptoms. One promising approach in therapy could be to target self-compassion more directly during mindfulness trainings and interventions.
