Is BPD actually simply the result of trauma, just a form of PTSD? Why do some people who experience trauma develop BPD and others don't? How can we distinguish between the two disorders?

Dr. Frank Yeomans discusses the difference between a trauma disorder and a personality disorder, and the most important aspect of treating both. Hint: detoxifying aggression.

Includes an extended treatment example of a person with dissociative identity disorder.
