• Sommario/riassunto: Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a psychiatric condition that affects nearly 2% of the general population, predominantly women.

Research on BPD has lagged behind that on other mental health conditions, such as depression and psychosis, primarily due to the lack of evidence of effective treatment but also due to the stigma historically associated with thecondition. Fortunately this situation is changing, with improved treatments now available and improved clinician/organiz
