Borderline personality disorder is actually a lunatic

Borderline personality disorder is not synonymous with insanity, it is a stigmatized misconception. Borderline personality disorder mainly manifests as symptoms such as emotional instability, interpersonal conflicts, and self-identity confusion, and is a diagnosable and treatable psychological disorder. Patients may be mistaken for mental abnormalities due to strong emotional fluctuations or impulsive behavior, but professional intervention can significantly improve their quality of life. The core characteristic of borderline personality disorder is difficulty in regulating emotions. Patients often experience intense emotional reactions, such as anger, anxiety, or depression, due to small stimuli, with a short duration but extremely high intensity. This emotional fluctuation can easily trigger behaviors such as self harm and suicide threats, leading to misunderstandings from the outside world as a state of loss of control. In fact, these behaviors are often a way for patients to express pain or seek attention, rather than a manifestation of mental disorder. Some severe patients may experience transient psychotic symptoms, such as hallucinations or paranoid thoughts. These symptoms usually appear briefly under stress and are fundamentally different from diseases such as schizophrenia. Most patients are able to maintain basic cognitive function and even perform well in certain areas without experiencing seizures. Simply categorizing patients as crazy can exacerbate their sense of shame and hinder their ability to seek professional help. Intervention for borderline personality disorder requires a combination of psychotherapy and medication management. Dialectical behavior therapy can help patients establish emotional regulation skills and improve interpersonal relationship patterns. Family members should avoid blaming or overprotection, and provide stable support by setting boundaries. Early diagnosis and systematic treatment can help most patients restore social function, and eliminating public misunderstandings requires continuous psychological education.
