Dr. Susan Heitler, Denver Clinical Psychologist, writing

about Borderline Personality Disorder in Psychology Today

“A pattern of intensely hyper-emotional responses…It is a

pattern of demanding, critical and chaotic relationships instead of

cooperative communicating. It also may be a pattern of attractive

and highly competent-appearing social functioning at times

alternating with periods of intense and inappropriate anger,

narcissism, and explicitly hurtful behavior (to themselves or

others).

People who grow up with raging, screaming, physically and

emotionally abusive parents become conditioned early in life to

totally obey, placate and cater to their domineering parent, or risk

emotional or even physical injury to their own self.”
