Once BPD was considered a death sentence. Then it was hypothesized that some could age out of this disorder. However, now with Marsha coming out of the closet, it seems those who know and treat the disorder, have the disorder. I do exhibit some anti-social traits but I just don't think the diagnosis fits. I guess if you spend too much time reading about pathology you find you find you have everything.
