	Borderline Personality Disorder From the Inside Out
		To me, Borderline Personality Disorder, aside from all else it represents and the many aspects of it that have been outlined and defined by professionals, is largely a disorder of relating.
		Keep in mind that what separates the borderline from the non-borderline is the degree of intensity of the traits defined as being borderline and not any arbitrary criteria that does not also exists in the world of the non-borderline.
		Borderlines and non-borderlines are not as far apart as it may seem.

	My Personal Borderline Personality Disorder Story
		The symptoms of borderline patients are similar to those for which most people seek psychiatric help: depression, mood swings, the use and abuse of drugs and alcohol as a means of trying to feel better; obsessions, phobias, feelings of emptiness and loneliness, inability to tolerate being alone, problems about eating.
		Acting-in borderlines recognize their disorder and seek help while acting-out borderlines act as if their problems are caused by others and they are out to get even through a myriad of mean and destructive actions.
		But while the borderline may act quite competent and normal to the general public, behind the scenes the borderline is splitting, projecting, manipulating, and self abusing, creating a situation where the spouse feels he/she is "walking on eggshells" always in fear of disturbing the delicate balance of emotions the borderline is constantly battling.
