Study Notes

Therapy for individuals with borderline personality disorder (BPD) typically involves helping them contain their overwhelming emotions and decrease acting out behaviors. Through therapy, individuals learn to use their observing ego or reflective process to reflect on their emotions and integrate them into their being. As therapy evolves, individuals begin to accept and feel emotions that were previously intolerable to them, leading to a decrease in acting out behaviors. The goal is to replace acting out with reflection. Successful therapy helps individuals with BPD gain self-esteem and realize that their negative perceptions of others may not be accurate. Through therapy, individuals with BPD can learn the reflective process and improve their accuracy of perception.
