Tory Higgins, the theory distinguishes among three components of self-concept: the actual self, the ideal self, and the ought self. These refer respectively to how individuals perceive themselves, how they aspire to be, and how they believe they are obligated to be. Emotional well-being, self-esteem,...

Area of Science:

  • Psychiatry and Mental Health
  • Clinical Psychology
  • Patient Advocacy

Background:

  • Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a severe mental health condition characterized by self-regulation deficits, psychological vulnerabilities, and relational difficulties.
  • Patients with BPD often experience chronic challenges impacting their emotional well-being and social functioning.
  • Understanding the unmet needs of BPD patients and their families is critical for developing effective support systems.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To comprehensively review and synthesize current data on the unmet needs of individuals diagnosed with borderline personality disorder.
  • To identify specific areas where BPD patients and their families require additional support, encompassing symptom management, treatment accessibility, and overall quality of life.
  • To highlight the implications of these unmet needs for current and future therapeutic interventions.

Main Methods:

  • A systematic literature search was conducted using PubMed, covering publications from January 1990 to May 2017.
  • Keywords included "borderline personality disorder," "needs," "pharmacotherapy," "psychotherapy," "CBT," and "family."
  • Eligibility criteria were applied to 57 primary articles, with an additional 151 articles identified through reference lists.

Main Results:

  • Unmet needs were categorized into three primary areas: symptom control (emotional regulation, self-harm, suicidality, comorbidity), treatment (early diagnosis, intervention, therapeutic relationships, destigmatization), and quality of life (family support, physical health, spiritual well-being).
  • Significant barriers to treatment and persistent challenges in social interactions and identity were reported.
  • Specific needs related to family support, physical health, and personal individuation were also identified.

Conclusions:

  • A significant gap exists between the needs of BPD patients and the available support, spanning medical, personal, and social domains.
  • Prioritizing and addressing the multifaceted needs of individuals with BPD is essential for improving treatment efficacy and patient outcomes.
  • Future therapeutic strategies should be tailored to comprehensively meet the identified needs of BPD patients and their families.
