Many people with BPD at various stage in their lives present to hospitals and emergency departments, but this is not a solid pattern for every person with BPD.

I used to do it, cause I was desperate, and in my mind that was where I would be helped.

I have also been detained various times when extremely effected by drugs, due to concerns about me killing myself.

It has however been a very long time since I presented to hospital in desperation.
