What is BPD?
Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is a serious mental health condition that affects how people think, feel, and connect with others. It is often misunderstood, yet it touches millions of lives worldwide — not only individuals, but entire families and communities.
Common Features of BPD
- Intense, rapidly changing emotions
- Challenges in relationships and trust
- Deep fear of abandonment
- Impulsivity or self-harming behaviors
- Difficulty coping with stress and anger
The Truth About BPD
- More common than schizophrenia and bipolar disorder combined
- Affects an estimated 1.6% of adults in the U.S.
- Ripple effects extend to 5 to 7% of families nationwide
