Object Relations Theory

One of the principal formulations of borderline personality disorder is based on object relations theory, a component of psychoanalytic theory. To remain relevant, psychoanalytic formulations must find support from empirical research. After summarizing the object relations understanding of borderline personality, the authors review studies in biological neuroscience, developmental psychology and cognitive science related to the fundamental concepts of object relations theory as it aplies to borderline pathology. This review suggests that these empirical studies support psychoanalytic formulations originally derived from clinical practice and observation.

Difficulty with boredom was eliminated from the formal diagnostic criteria for borderline personality disorder (BPD) in 1994 based on significantly limited, unpublished data. However, it is apparent in clinical practice that boredom remains relevant to BPD. This review synthesizes empirical research, with consideration of theoretical accounts, to critically examine the relevance of boredom to BPD. We first briefly review issues in defining and measuring boredom and offer an expanded conceptualization for BPD, which includes the notion of boredom reactivity, before turning to boredom’s differentiation from and overlap with feelings of emptiness, with which it was paired prior to its removal from the DSM. We then discuss perspectives on boredom’s significance in BPD, briefly touching on its relevance in other personality disorders. We propose a Boredom Cascade Model that articulates how boredom and boredom reactivity interact with identity disturbance and chronic emptiness to create escalating patterns of behavioral dysregulation and make recommendations for research and treatment.

This case depicts a situation wherein the facts do not seem to fit. In a hurried and busy clinical practice, one is glad to encounter what seems to be a pleasant patient. Patients with personality disorders, especially those with a borderline personality disorder (BPD), can be very deceptive. Their overall manner is often very congenial, until their expectations or requests are not met. Their presentation may be very different to the staff versus the clinician. Self-destructive (mutilation) behavior can be seen in the more severe cases. Female patients can be very disarming. Their objective, in the chronic pain setting, relates more to issues of control and manipulation than to receiving effective pain management. Treatment can be intensive and involve residential placement. Use of controlled substances can be very dangerous. Patient with BPD are best referred to a specialist.
