Abstract

In this study, we examined the prevalence of borderline personality disorder (BPD) in a sample of patients seeking outpatient treatment with buprenorphine for opioid addiction. To assess for BPD, we used three self-report surveys in a consecutive study sample. Of the 111 participants who completed all three measures of BPD, 49 (44.1%) exceeded the cut-off score indicative of BPD. Among individuals who are addicted to opioids and seeking treatment with buprenorphine, the prevalence of BPD, as mutually confirmed by three self-report measures, is quite high.
