A mental illness where a person cannot control their own emotions.

This means that you feel like shit for literally no reason, and you lack the ability to stop it.

Naturally, this results in the afflicted individual engaging in whatever behaviors they find necessary to alleviate their pain.

This, in turn, makes them appear crazy to the outside world.

Borderlines are notoriously frustrating to work with. The thing that people seem to forget is that if they are frustrated with us, we are infinitely more frustrated with ourselves.

Treatment is available. The vast majority of borderlines recover with Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).

Abbreviated BPD.
Commonly comorbid with depression and anxiety.

Sociopaths are people who disregard or violate rules of society, lacks guilt and empathy, and despite being impulsive, they are probably intelligent and charismatic.
One of my close friends has Antisocial Personality Disorder. She excels in Maths and psychology, though she constantly gets into hot water by her impulse. She values ratiocination and logical reasoning but do not understand how others feel.

A unique form of abuse perpetrated by someone with a personality disorder specifically due to that disorder. It is thought by many to not be a valid form of abuse (having no scientific and/or medical research behind it) and that using the term(s) is a form of ableism which further demonizes personality disorders.

Examples of this form of abuse include Narcissistic Abuse, Borderline Abuse, and Antisocial Abuse.
Person 1: I suffered from narcissistic abuse from my dad when I was a kid.
Person 2: I'm sorry that happened to you, but that was just abuse. Personality disorder abuse is a made-up thing and pretty ableist.
