FERNANDEZ-GUERRERO, María José. Complex post-traumatic stress disorder and borderline personality disorder: the discussion goes on. Differential diagnosis proposal. Pap. Psicol. [online]. 2023, vol.44, n.3, pp.172-179. Epub 13-Nov-2023. ISSN 1886-1415. https://dx.doi.org/10.23923/pap.psicol.3025.
Following the inclusion in the ICD-11 of the diagnosis of complex post-traumatic stress disorder (c-PTSD) in 2020, there has been a succession of publications debating the relevance or lack thereof of this entity and regarding its distinction from borderline personality disorder (BPD). The present reflection article aims to: 1. understand whether c-PTSD and BPD are different entities; 2. understand the state of the art regarding this issue; and 3. propose a differential diagnosis that will help to distinguish between the two. To account for the first two questions, a qualitative (non-systematic) literature review was carried out between 2020 and 2022 (the period of validity of c-PTSD in the ICD-11). Based on the theoretical and empirical information found, and achieving the third objective, a differential diagnosis is proposed in order to shed light on the nosological distinction between the two constructs.
