A diathesis stress explanation would say that certain individuals may have a genetic propensity to anxiety and emotional instability. When this genetic propensity is stressed by life experiences the person develops this disorder. For example, these individuals report high rates of either sexual, emotional, or physical abuse during childhood. Some also report abuse by people in authority (including healthcare workers) as adults. Other patients report coming from broken homes. However, not all people who come from broken homes or who are abused develop borderline personality disorder; this is why it is suspected that there may be a genetic component. There are other theories and research out there, but the diathesis stress model is a common theory for many mental disorders.
Add parental neglect and/or abandonment to the above list of possible contributing causes.
Causes of a serious personality disorder may include abuse and genetics. The exact causes are not fully known but may include that development of normal thought and behavior patterns were prevented by early experiences or genetic or biological influences.
-Human Being has a bio magnetic field (aura) approx 1 meter from the body.The memories are stored in the right side of the field.

This negative field is the biomagnetic field of a dead person with all memories. it is also called as soul attachments.Due to memory clash the victim develops PPD.
