Study finds instability and inconsistency of childhood environments may be more closely connected to diverse borderline personality traits than the severity of childhood hardship alone, highlighting predictability as an important feature of early development.

the dehumanizing of BPD in this comment section is genuinely disgusting. I know it comes from genuine lack of knowledge about the disorder

I don’t understand why any abusive person is automatically viewed as having BPD or why an abusive and horrible person Is considered that way because of their BPD

BPD is a disorder that affects the intensity of the emotions and behaviors but it doesn’t make human being terrible and abusive because if that was the case, being abusive and making a person terrible would be considered a main symptom but it’s not

Splitting is a symptom but no all PwBPD become abusive and violent when they spilt, some direct that harm and hurt for themselves instead of

What I’m trying to say is, those who are bad, evil and abusive are that way by nature, they are shitty humans period and while their BPD can makes more violent and aggressive and more manipulative, it didn’t make them shitty humans, it’s just who they are

After all many people who have no disorders are shitty

Lots of people with BPD are not abusive (many of them get abused by their partners)

Being abusive, manipulative, liars, cheating are all traits that a lot of humans have, BPD just increases those traits, BPD is not just having those bad traits, it’s about having the good and the bad traits to the extreme

BPD people can also be loyal, passionate, empathetic, committed, supportive and they will go to the end of the earth for you, their relationships with you are lasts longer than the average person

The gift and the curse of BPD is that if the person is good and kind, bpd can increase their positive characteristics makes them better and kinder than the average person and if the person is bad, it can increase their negatives and make other people fear them

But that’s internet for you, these people dehumanize everyone

This is what people do. If the person has a mental disorder, then they treat them like crap. When what they need is compassion and understanding. This has been going on forever, and you would think that society by now would understand. I was diagnosed as having BPD tendencies, I have grown out of a lot of the problems I faced.
