[QUOTE="flutterby, post: 319465, member: 7083"] The thing you have to be careful with, is that most teenagers have what would otherwise be considered traits of Borderline (BPD) as a normal part of the growth process. That is why there is hesitancy to not diagnosis it until adulthood. It's the degree of the symptoms, as well as the impact on daily functioning, relationships, etc, that determine the diagnosis. To paraphrase therapist, "All teenagers have traits of Borderline (BPD), but there is no question of it with difficult child." [/QUOTE]
