[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 701909, member: 1550"] The problem with borderline, in any medical system, however, is that it is a personality disorder...i guess it is a mental illness but very few who have it will accept that they are different, let alone mentally ill. They blame others for their problems. Plus they are very unpleasant, even very mean. It is rare to see progress without willful, intensive professional help by the sick person. It really doesn't matter if they are in the hands of great mental health care. Unless they want help, they repel others and continue outrageous and offensive behavior...coupled with a month or a few months of good behavior which gives loved ones hope. But as soon as the person is opposed or is under pressure or is contradicted it falls into meanness again. This is a very sad disorder. Everyone suffers. That's why I suggested borderline Central, the forum. Borderline Central is a unique help for those who love somebody who can repeatedly strike out at them for no reason. All the people with borderline loved ones get it. I am not sure anyone else can. medications can help certain symptoms, like anxiety, but not the behavior. Until maybe two years ago the psychiatric community deemed it incurable. It is still not easy to help not widely understood and getting better demands extremely hard work and determination by the patient. Tears for all who suffer..... [/QUOTE]
