I hate the label...I think it's too confining and too inclusive at the same time. You cannot be defined by a set of criteria, and lots of people have problems that are within the description of BPD. There is a continuum after all, let's not be black and white about it...see that'd might make us borderline!!
I'd rather focus on patterns and habitual defenses rather than some arbitrary category.
