Summary

Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is the most prevalent personality disorder in young community population whose most severe complication is suicide. Pharmacotherapy should not be used as the primary treatment for BPD as the benefits are unclear. Psychotherapy is the main treatment for people with BPD and the current recommendation is adapting available comprehensive treatments to develop easier and briefer therapies that are also effective. Iconic Therapy is an innovative option whose good clinical results should be validated on a clinical trial.
