People with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) will often show some sign of improvement eventually, however because it is a persobality disosrder (axis II) and not axis I (depression, anxiety) it is often much more difficult to change the bad behavior to better behavior. Many people say that BPD symptoms get better with age, while others have found that survey the format that has been testing this is ill equipped to truly measure this.

BPD patients often leave therapy early, usually because it is difficult and they get frustrated - DON'T STOP THERAPY! Hang in there. Dialectical Behavior Therapy is statistically the best therapy for BPD. Patients tend to stay in it longer and it has shown to be more effective for more people.

What personality disorders generally are most responsive to psychotherapy?

Borderlines usually do very well to therapy. Once diagnosed, within 10 years they can lead the most normal lives. I know this because I was diagnosed and through intensive therapy was able to see how abusive my family was and want to change. Most studies show that with about 10 borderlines, in 10 years 3 are cured, 4 have shown great recovery and 3 are still the same, struggling. Borderlines, about half recover. Other personality disorders are much harder.
