Welcome to Borderline Personality Disorder Awareness Month! This month is dedicated to raising awareness and understanding of this complex mental health condition. Throughout May, we will come together to learn more about BPD and how it affects those living with it. This year marks the 20th anniversary of BPD awareness month, which began in 2001 as an effort to reduce stigma and support those affected by the disorder. We are proud that so many people have come together over the years to raise awareness, provide resources, and help create a supportive community for those living with BPD.
