BPD symptoms
 A pervasive pattern of instability of interpersonal relationships, self-image, and
affects, and marked impulsivity beginning by early adulthood and present in a
variety of contexts, as indicated by five (or more) of the following:
 1. frantic efforts to avoid real or imagined abandonment. Note: Do not include suicidal
or self-mutilating behavior covered in Criterion 5.
 2. a pattern of unstable and intense interpersonal relationships characterized
by alternating between extremes of idealization and devaluation.
 3. identity disturbance: markedly and persistently unstable self-image or sense of self.
 4. impulsivity in at least two areas that are potentially self-damaging (e.g., spending,
sex, substance abuse, reckless driving, binge eating). Note: Do not include suicidal or
self-mutilating behavior covered in Criterion 5.
 5. recurrent suicidal behavior, gestures, or threats, or self-mutilating behavior
 6. affective instability due to a marked reactivity of mood (e.g., intense episodic
dysphoria, irritability, or anxiety usually lasting a few hours and only rarely more than a
few days).
 7. chronic feelings of emptiness (or boredom)
 8. inappropriate, intense anger or difficulty controlling anger (e.g., frequent displays of
temper, constant anger, recurrent physical fights)
 9. transient, stress-related paranoid ideation or severe dissociative symptoms

Treatment Histories
 2 year study of freshman with (169) and without (192) BPD features
 BPD+ : more pharmacologic, psychological and medical treatment,
even after controlling for gender, Axis I, II pathology

Bagge et al 2005
 MSAD: 290 BPD, 72 other axis II consecutive inpatients at McLean
hospital
 patients with BPD 2- 4.5 times more likely to have received each of 12
types of treatment

Influence of BPD on Axis I disorders
 CLPS
 BPD + MDD : MDD remission in 64%
 Other PD +MDD: MDD remission in 89%

Gunderson et al 2004
 MSAD
 BPD remitted: significant decline in rates of axis I
disorders
 BPD never remitted: Rates of axis I disorders (mood,
anxiety, SUD, ED) remained stable despite intensive
treatment

BPD and suicide
Mortality data
 Psychological autopsy studies
 12% adults with psychiatric illness who suicided

Kullgren et al 1986
 33% of adolescent suicides
 Runeson and Beskow 1991
 Lifetime risk of suicide in BPD: 3-10%
 Early all cause mortality 18.2% at mean age 50 yrs
(expected in general pop 4.5% women 7.5% men)

BPD mothers and their infants
•



59 mother-infant dyads
Mom’s average age 30, infants 12-18 months
Strange situation procedure
Compared to moms with MDD(15) and moms with no mental
disorder (31), BPD moms (13) are:
 prone to relate to their infants with intense, inconsistent and often
self- oriented styles of engagement
 more likely to exhibit fear/disorientation in response to their
infant’s attachment bids
 Disrupted affective communication:
 BPD moms 85%
 MDD moms 47%
 No dx moms 42%
 Hobson et al 2009
BPD mothers and their children
 BPD moms(16), No disorder moms (116) , MDD moms(36)
Cluster C moms (28)
 Compared with children of moms with MDD, cluster C or
no disorder, children (ages 11-18) of BPD moms exhibited:
 Higher harm avoidance
 Perceived their mother as being overly protective (mother gets
overinvolved, mother induces feeling of shame and guilt, mother acts very anxious,
mother dictated what clothes should be worn)
 Lower levels of self esteem
 Compared with children of moms with no disorder
 attention problems, behavioural problems (delinquency and
aggression)
 Death wishes and suicidal ideas/plans

Barnow et al 2006
BPD: effect on families
 Families with parental BPD
 more unstable than families with other PD
 children more frequently exposed to parental substance
abuse, neglect and suicide attempts

Feldman et al 1995
 Families with parental BPD report interactional styles with
more conflict, less expression and less cohesion

Moos and Moos 1986
 BPD patients entering treatment
 perceived family relationships as extremely difficult,
 overall scores for quality of relationships with partner,
children and family were much worse than with MDD.

Gerull et al 2008
BPD: burden on families
 16 patients with BPD or schizotypal PD
 35 family members
 Burden on Family Unit (0-5)
 34% moderate
 31% high
 15% extreme
 Higher than having family member with DM, CVD, cancer
 Family member with scz: 70% extreme burden
 Most troublesome sx: anger, impulsivity, financial burden

Schulz et al 1985
 Gunderson and Hoffman 2005:
 3 main problem areas:
 communication, anger and suicidality
NICE 2009
 1.3.4.3 When providing psychological treatment for people
with BPD, especially those with multiple co-morbidities
and/or severe impairment the following service
characteristics should be in place:




Explicit and integrated theoretical approach
Structured care
Provision for therapist supervision
Twice weekly sessions may be considered
 1.3.4.4 Do not use brief psychotherapeutic interventions (
of less than 3 months duration) specifically for BPD or for
the individual symptoms of the disorder
Cochrane 2012
 indications of beneficial effects comprehensive
and non-comprehensive therapies for core and
associated psychopathology
 *DBT, MBT, TFP, SFT, STEPPS most data
 None of the treatments have a robust evidence
base
 Findings support a substantial role in treatment
of people with BPD
Meds for BPD?
• NICE 2009 1.3.5.1 Drug treatment should
not be used specifically for borderline
personality disorder or for the individual
symptoms or behaviour associated with
the disorder
• Cochrane 2010:
• Findings suggestive in supporting use of
second generation antipsychotics, mood
stabilizers and omega 3 fatty acids…
• Total BPD severity was not significantly
influenced by any drug.”
Dialectical Behaviour Therapy
 Developed in 1991
 8 RCT studies to date, 8 Naturalistic studies
 Manualized treatment
 4 components: individual therapy, group based skills
training, telephone coaching, therapist consultation
 Intensive treatment 1 year, approximately 50 % of
individuals participate in less intensive treatment after
1 year
Cochrane 2012
 meta 4 outcomes DBT vs TAU
 Anger- large
 Parasuicide, mental health status – moderate
 Single studies estimates of effect (DBT vs TAU)
 DBT>TAU BPD core pathology and associated
psychopathology
DBT vs TAU studies: summary
 6 DBT (Linehan 1991, 2006, Turner 2000, Koons 2001,
Verhuel 2003, Clarkin 2007)
 2 DBT-S (Linehan 1999, 2002)
 With TAU 1-3 :
 DBT<TAU Suicide attempts 4/5 studies
 DBT >TAU retention 2/5 studies
 DBT<TAU hospital days 2/4 studies



TAU 1: individual session less than once per week (1)
TAU 2: individual session once per week (1)
TAU 3: individual session 1/wk and one of: group, a second
individual session/week, therapist supervision
DBT vs Level 4 treatments
 Level 4 treatments
 Well defined theoretical basis
 Weekly supervision, support
 Once or twice weekly intervention
 Active therapists
 Here and now focus
 DBT=GPM significant reductions in:
 suicide attempts*, self harm episodes, ER visits, psych hospital days, #
BPD symptoms, depression, anger , interpersonal function

McMain et al 2009
 DBT vs TFP
 DBT= TFP significant improvements SI/A, depression, anxiety, GAF,

 DBT<TFP anger, impulsivity
