borderline personality disorder and their life can be affected in a variety
of areas including school, work, and personal relationships;
? The individual struggles with intense emotional pain; for example feelings
of emptiness, anger, desperation, hopelessness, emptiness, and loneliness;
? The person may struggle with thoughts (as well as gestures and attempts)

burning themselves in an attempt to reduce the emotional pain;
