Michael A. Davis, MD

Borderline personality disorder is characterized by a pervasive pattern of instability of interpersonal relationships, self-image, and affects, and marked impulsivity beginning by early adulthood and present in a variety of contexts. Borderline personality disorder occurs in 2 to 3 percent of the general population and is by far the most common personality disorder in clinical settings. About 11 percent of outpatient populations, 19 percent of inpatient populations, and 27 to 63 percent of personality-disordered clinical populations. It appears to occur about three times more often in women than in men
