I think it's dangerous to try and self diagnose him. Has he been diagnosed by a doctor as having BPD?
It's dangerous because it can lead to faulty thinking: Oh, it's his mental illness talking, when he's really being in fact, just downright abusive.
Abusive people can act paranoid and crazy. The danger lies with explaining away one's abusiveness with mental illness instead.
