Summary
Schmidt (2021) convincingly describes three kinds of instabilities (in identity, affect, and interpersonal relationship) associated with the borderline personality disorder (BPD) and shows how these phenomena are related with body experience. Schmidt argues that all these types of instabilities are experientially interrelated and demonstrates this by providing examples that show how disturbed self-experience is involved in identity, affect, and intersubjective instability. In the light of these descriptions, he suggests that there is a fourth kind of instability in BPD patients that specifically concerns embodiment.
