Borderline Personality Disorder manifests itself in several ways, but the following symptoms are the most common among people with BPD:

• Impulsiveness: including excessively spending money, gambling, sex, reckless driving, binge eating, and'or substance abuse.
• Emotional Instability

• Suicidal/Self-Harm Behaviors

People with BPD often feel unworthy, bad, or misunderstood. They have an extreme fear of abandonment and go to frantic efforts to avoid being alone. People with BPD struggle with their sense of self, which leads to frequent changes in jobs, friendships, and goals. BPD is usually coupled with anxiety or depression.
