Early signs of borderline personality disorder in adolescents

Abstract

BPD is defined as a comprehensive pattern of interpersonal relationships, self-image, and emotional instability and impulsivity that begins in early adulthood. Many studies suggest that we can reliably diagnose BPD in adolescents. The present thesis has examined the issue of early symptoms of borderline personality disorder in adolescents, with the aim of deepening knowledge about this controversial issue, among the adolescent population suffering from this disorder.
