12. Ongoing Feelings of Emptiness

Medium

People who suffer from Borderline Personality Disorder experience a lot of emptiness in their life. Impulsivity, self-harm, suicidal behavior, and decreased psychosocial function have all been connected to feelings of emptiness.

Chronic emotions of emptiness manifested as a sensation of separation from both self and others, as well as a constant sense of numbness and nothingness, as well as a reduction in functional capacity. Emptiness has been linked to feelings of purposelessness and unfulfillment, and most persons with BPD find emptiness unpleasant.
