Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is a mood disorder characterized by extreme and fluctuating emotions, black-and-white thinking, interpersonal relationship problems, and, in extreme cases, self-harm. If you have recently been diagnosed with BPD, you likely have many questions. What treatment options are available? How to inform your friends and loved ones? And what are the common side effects of medication?
