People with BPD traits have a very poor sense of Self. They're not only physical cutters, most are emotional cutters (brutally hard on themselves). Many are (also) pathologically codependent ~always people pleasing, and trying to 'buy' affection, acceptance and adoration from others. This dual diagnosis is extremely common among those who work in the psychotherapeutic profession.
