As a consequence there is little awareness of its existence in the general public. If there were greater awareness, more resources would be brought to the table to help these people. I believe the biggest problem is its name. "Borderline" means nothing in helping us understand the condition. I have proposed that we change the name to Faultfinding Personality Disorder based on the most important diagnostic criterion - chronic finding of fault with themselves and others due to their black-and-white thinking which leads to disturbed interpersonal relationships. To back this up I wrote the book "Faultfinders: The impact of borderline personality disorder." I explained the condition using examples of numerous famous people to make the symptoms memorable. I would be interested to hear what others think about a possible name change.Mark Osterloh, MD, JD, RPhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06103132832488432174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8835300748352088628.post-71559565132910276782011-07-05T12:05:01.425-06:002011-07-05T12:05:01.425-06:00Hi Jill,
