Do you believe that someone with borderline personality disorder can be treated?

I was very happy and excited to see this question.  I firmly believe that anyone can be treated for Borderline Personality Disorder.  The most important factor is that you are asking for help and for that to happen, you must be wanting to make a change.   This is the basic foundation for treatment to be successful and with the right treatment,  the symptoms of Borderline Personality Disorder can be minimized, sometimes even eradicated. You can always learn new ways to take care of your symptoms and have a significant improvement to your day to day interactions and relationships with others. That is the  foundation of Dialetical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and why it works wonders for those who struggle with personality disorders.  DBT is an evidence based treatment for Borderline Personality Disorder and is all about learning new ways to deal with your emotions.  It will be a key component to your successful treatment.  Also, If you do the homework assignment(s) that your therapist assigns to you,  you will see firsthand the help you will ultimately give to yourself.  Any human being can also learn new perspectives that they may not have considered before, this  can certainly help you to heal too. The good news is that you can experience relief from your symtoms, perhaps even eradicate them! Another thing to consider is not necessarily what is wrong with you, but more importantly, what may have happened to you? What may have happened that caused you such pain and trauma? Many times people don't realize that the cause of their pain is deeply rooted in past traumatic events - and it is not your fault!    Please don't ever let anyone else tell you differently.  You can heal. You can grow. You can be happy and whole again with the right treatment and therapist you can trust.  I wish you much luck in your journey.  I believe that you will see a lot of individual growth within yourself and you will feel so much better in the long run after you learn and apply the skills from DBT to your everyday life.  Be well and take care of yourself.
