United StatesBorderline personality disorder is a mental health condition characterized by difficulty managing emotions and behavior, a pattern of unstable relationships, and self-image issues. Individuals with borderline personality disorder often engage in self-harm and deal with feelings of emptiness, fear of abandonment, and depersonalization.
Borderline Personality Disorder is commonly associated with other mental health conditions such as depression, eating disorders, and substance abuse.
BPD can typically be treated with evidence-based psychotherapy such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).
This test uses the Maclean Screening Instrument for BPD - a series of 10 yes or no questions corresponding to different symptoms for Borderline Personality Disorder.
Disclaimer: This test is NOT a diagnostic test. A diagnosis can only be provided by a qualified healthcare professional. Please consult a physician or mental health professional if you are concerned about Borderline Personality Disorder.

personally accurate for myself or not, it should be stated that these traits overlap with other issues inc, ptsd, bipolar, ocd, other personality disorders etc. 10 yes or no questions to "suggest" is minimising/somewhat humouring those diagnosed.
I went to the hospital and I was confirmed with BPD .so it helped abit
I SCORED TOO LOW DON'T HAVE THIS DISORDER
this is okay I guess but I already knew I had BPD so honestly I just wasted my why did I even bother
Vague. I don't believe it
Basic, general knowledge. If you're just beginning on your journey to find answers about what your going through, it's a good place to start. Don't forget, never a good idea to self diagnose with Google or apps. To start to look into symptoms or for the newly diagnosed, this is basic. These tests are addicting!
Aside from what I thought i knew, it was rather uninformative. I have had the diagnosis twice in roughly 20 years. I had a misconception about it in it's wording. I thought the "Borderline" referred to ALMOST having a disorder. Little did I know, but things make a lot more sense now. I think the worst part is knowing that you have it. As if we Borderlines didnt second-guess ourselves enough as it is...sorry for rambling. Just my 0.02.
