As with all psychopathology and medicine alike, there is often no cure drug. For BPD, drug "cocktails" are common, which can include anti-depressants,anti-anxiety medications (e.g. benzodiazepines) mood-stabilizers (e.g. depakote and sometimes lithium), and less commonly calcium beta-blockers, and second and 1st generation anti-psychotic medications (to help with "distorted thinking" and delusional processes.

For some though, a chemical imbalance can be corrected with medication can't it? Least that's what I read. But the personality is inherent to the thought processes of the individual. The body works the same for us all, but the mind contains the experiences of a lifetime and drives the person in whatever direction their life script has made for them. Mine for example, my life script was made the day my mother put me on the floor to start crawling around. That was the start of my non-care (is that a viable phrase?) meaning, not ever again did she coddle and coo to me, if in fact she ever did before. I have memories of feeling let down, disappointment, abject terror of her when she chased me from the house with the strap, All these things contributed to the script to MAKE me overly sensitive to anger and people disregarding me. To actively look to other people to make ME feel good. These things cannot be fixed by drugs. And they can't be fixed by someone else. Because this desire for someone else to fix you, falls right in line with the life script rules. Fix me, because I'm too helpless, too needy, too dependant, too avoident, too stupid, etc., you get the point. By making others dance to your tune or Game, you fulfill the life script that was made when you were 5 years old. And all the childish emotions and feelings are right there out in front for others to deal with. If you don't face this head on, realize where these feelings come from, you play out your life script to the bitter end. The thoughts of fear, rejection, jeolousy, loss, etc., are directly from that age in your life, 5 yrs old. Look at and study the children around you who are this age. Do you see yourself in them?
