Abstract: Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is characterized by persistent impairments in emotional regulation and interpersonal relationships [1]. It is highly comorbid with mood, anxiety, and substance use disorders, and when comorbid with major depressive disorder is associated with reduced remission rate for depressive symptoms [2]. Recent evidence has shown that electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) results in equivalent short-term improvement in depressive symptoms among patients who screen positive or negative for BPD traits [3].
