BPD Borderline Personality Disorder

In my opinion, Bridget has BPD, Borderline Personality Disorder. Classic symptoms include
Fear of abandonment, overspending, cutting or self mutilation, suicide attempts, sexual overtness, lying - also substance or alcohol abuse.

I had a strong feeling she was BPD as I watched how she related with her family. I have experience in this, my sister was BPD, my mother is also. Sadly my sisiter who had all the behaviours above, killed herself last year..

I am very surprised that Dr Phil or the psychcologist involved have not considered this diagnosis and the treatment for BPD. This is not a well known thing but I hoped Dr Phil would know about it and recognise it. I guess he knows more than I, but I just out this forward as a theory...being able to recognise it, could lead to the correct treatment for it
