Does your sibling have some borderline personality characteristics? This intriguing episode demystifies what a borderline looks like and explores how this challenging behavioral pattern may limit a sibling relationship.Typically, those with borderline traits have a fundamental fear of real or perceived abandonment. They cycle through moods quickly and engage in chaotic behaviors as they vacillate between connection and disconnection -- often pressing for a close sibling relationship and then pushing a brother or sister away. Low self-esteem and a fundamental emptiness drive their reckless behaviors and, often, they suffer with an addiction to food, sex, drugs, or gambling. Borderlines don't take any responsibility for their actions, making it especially difficult to establish and maintain a consistent, loving relationship. Many siblings find that they can't be their authentic selves around a borderline sister or brother. Eventually, for self-preservation, a sibling may make the difficult decision to go no contact or low contact with their borderline relative.
