Question restatement: Borderline personality disorder (BPD) features include rapid mood shifts, self-destructive acts, self-damaging behaviors, and identity disturbance. Among the options, we evaluate how each statement aligns with typical BPD symptoms.
Option 1: Becomes paranoid when feeling criticized. Paranoia or transient paranoid thinking is not a core or defining feature of BPD in the context of criticism; whereas paranoid ideation can occur in some disorders or under stress, it is not a hallmark of BPD as described in standard clinical features.
Option 2: Goes into isolation with feeling criticized. Withdrawal or social isolation can occur in various conditions, but BPD more commonly presents with intense interpersonal reactivity, fear of abandonment, and rumination about relationships. Isolation in response to criticism is not the defining pattern emphasized for BPD.
Option 3: Pleases others when feeling criticized. People with BPD may engage in people-pleasing behaviors to avoid conflict or abandonment, but this phrasing suggests a deliberate, protective strategy rather than the characteristic emotional response pattern. It does not capture the core affective instability associated with BPD.
Option 4: Uncontrollable anger when feeling criticized. This option aligns with the BPD pattern of affective instability and impulsive reactions, including excessive anger in response to perceived rejection or criticism. It reflects the rapid mood shifts and intense, sometimes disproportionate anger that can occur in BPD.
In summary, Option 4 best maps onto the documented BPD feature of intense, poorly controlled anger in response to criticism, while the other options do not consistently represent the core diagnostic pattern described for BPD.
