bipolar or borderline
In the field of behavioral health, there is a reason for people under eighteen can not be diagnosed with a personality disorder (axis II). The reason is, with intensive psychotherapy and family support, youth have been known to make significant changes on the negative aspects of his characters, for the better.
Borderline personality disorder (BPD) can be characterized by rapid mood changes, chaotic relationships, impulsivity and consistent. Adults, a disorder borderline personality usually presents with a low sense of self-esteem, anxiety and chronic depression. It is not uncommon for adults with BPD do suicide threats, a threat to be taken seriously and that suicides occur in about ten per cent of people with BPD. Coupled with the threat of taking Oneâ € ™ s life, the difficulty of having peaceful relations with others is usually characterized by an inability to keep a job, no partner relationships and legal problems. Most people tend to stereotype DBP be mostly confined to the female population, but actually almost an equal number of men have BPD. Usually not and most are diagnosed within the prison system.
Adolescents who usually present with strong elements of BPD present with little sense of self-esteem, suicide threats, self-injurious behavior (to cut) and self reported feeling empty. They also present as easily irritated routinely and have outbursts of anger. His close relationships with family and peers are characterized by drama, chaos and they are impulsive.
There are four forms of parents with adolescents who have strong features can begin to help limit the path of change for the better. These methods are:

Since the majority of adolescents with strong elements of this with a sense TLP low self-esteem, whoa € ™ s father too critical will only worse. Parents should practice this: While your son has done nothing to hurt others or reflect a lack of empathy toward others, just talk to them about the situation. A good example of being poor grades in the school.
Two: Poor Anger Management

If your teenager to throw a tantrum stations, let them. If for something that wouldn t ™ € give them proper reasons, donâ € ™ t give in. Stay calm and make sure they are safe once they have calmed down, talk to them about the behavior and dona ™ € t be afraid to give their consequences. Â If you use themes last minute Dona € ™ t belong to them, make efforts to ensure that replace these items, if resorted to threats to its security, tranquility inform them that if the threat becomes again that the authorities are called in. If the threat is again, follow through.
Three: suicidal ideation and self-injurious behavior of
Take all threats of ending Oneâ € ™ s life seriously, including self-damaging behaviors such as self-mutilation through court. While research suggests that reducing isnâ € ™ t indicative of suicide, to treat the situation as a threat of suicide. Rush your child to the nearest emergency room or section of psychiatry and depending on the seriousness of their acts or threats can also get who admitted overnight for observation. At home and take all the elements that can be used to hurt me Oneâ € ™ s your room, I have met parents who have removed the doors of the hall of his teens ™ €. It is clear that your child does not appreciate these gestures, but calmly explain that you love them very much and is taking reasonable precautions to ensure their safety. At this point it's good to get your child to see a therapist, with whom they can work to develop a contract, when your child is committed to making no attempt to harm him or herself. An overreaction and is always the best course of action in suicidal ideation and attempts. This also helps you to regain control in the relationship once the child learns that he is willing to go beyond that, anytime you make threats to end his life (instead of giving) that generally a high behavior. Overreaction must be used every time a suicide threat or attempt to do.
