	<span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">Borderline Personality Disorder is associated
with high degrees of mental</span></span><span><span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\"> health <span>service engagement due to distress, and </span></span></span></span><span><span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">is </span></span></span><span><span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">classically
described as being</span></span></span><span><span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\"> strongly <span>associated with trauma, specifically childhood
sexual abuse. This is despite</span> <span>low
prevalence </span></span></span></span><span><span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">of </span></span></span><span><span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\">trauma histories, as well as studies
suggesting a paucity of</span></span></span><span><span><span style=\"font-family:&quot;\"> <span>evidence for trauma as a primary contributory factor. This article aims

the debate and advocates for reformulation of the</span> con<span>dition as a condition with a biological origin and
