What is BPD and CPTSD: Identity and Diagnosis about?

This document analyzes language used to describe borderline personality disorder (BPD) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in the DSM-5. Through discourse and linguistic analysis, it finds the BPD definition constructs it more as a fixed part of identity while PTSD allows for more variability and focus on experiences over the person. This shapes how those diagnosed see themselves long-term and their relationship to the diagnosis.
