BPD and Suicide

As many as 70 percent of BPD patients attempt suicide, and the rate of completed suicide approaches 10 percent, almost a thou­sand times the rate seen in the general population. In the high-risk group of adolescents and young adults (ages fifteen to twenty­ nine), BPD was diagnosed in a third of suicide cases. 

Hopelessness, impulsive aggressiveness, major depression, concurrent drug use, and a history of childhood abuse increase the risk. __Although anxi­ety symptoms are often associated with suicide in other illnesses, borderlines who exhibit significant anxiousness are actually less
likely to commit suicide.__

Take THAT! 😂😂😂
