They swing wildly from love to hate and back again. People with BPD will frantically try to avoid real or imagined abandonment. It is mostly triggered by violent childhood abuse, perceived rejection, being alone or perceived failure. BPD is not a genetic order, but its common in some families, but BPD patients make up 20% of the inpatients in the mental health system and is the fastest growing population. It is common to an extent, because it is growing rapidly, but most patients with BPD are sent to institutes to help them be treated. Many Experts are skeptics to psychological treatment, but in recent years a new psychotherapy has been developed. Many famous people overcame this disability and went on to do great things.
