My psychiatrist told me psychosis is caused by stress even in people who don't have BPD. A BPD psychosis is very different from schizophrenia, psychotic depression and bipolar disorder. The symptoms are not as severe and usually lack organization (delusions). They tend to be non-specific or vague, such as seeing objects from the corner of one's eye or hearing indistinct voices. Usually they get paranoid and experience dissociation. They don't generally have other symptoms associated with psychotic disorders such as thought disorder. Their issues are temporary and reactive, and always related to interpersonal conflict.
