I can't find any information about the concept ''bordering on psychotic'' online so can't really comment any further on it. I've only read and heard about quasi psychosis and pseudo psychosis and assumed them to be the same. Any information Google gives me about ''bordering on psychotic'' doesn't seem very reliable and seems to mention that it's a part of certain personality disorders, but that's Google for you.

Is there any mention of it in the DSM?
