A member asked:
Can anybody tell me about what its like to have borderline personality disorder? and is it similar to aspergers syndrome?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
BPD: Actually the two disorders are pretty far apart diagnostically. Borderline personality disorder is characterized by unstable and intense moods. Individuals with bpd are highly sensitive to non-verbal communications, rejections, abandonment feelings etc. Asperger's disorder is closer to autism in the disconnection from others and difficulty reading non-verbal cues and communications.
