Essay: Challenges in Assessing and Diagnosing Borderline
Personality Disorder in South Africa
Introduction (5 marks)
Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) is a complex mental
health condition characterized by intense emotional
instability, impulsive behaviors, and difficulties maintaining
interpersonal relationships. Diagnosing BPD is challenging
because its symptoms overlap with other psychiatric
disorders, such as depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorder.
This essay will discuss the DSM-5 diagnostic criteria for
personality disorders, focusing on BPD and its hallmark
features. It will then critically examine the challenges
clinicians face in diagnosing BPD and how these difficulties
manifest in the South African context, where cultural diversity,
limited resources, and stigma further complicate the
diagnostic process.


a) DSM-5 Diagnostic Criteria and Hallmark Features (20 marks)
Personality Disorders (General DSM-5 Criteria)
