Abstract
MDMA-assisted psychotherapy (MDMA-AP) has demonstrated considerable efficacy in treating post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
- PTSD and complex PTSD (CPTSD) frequently co-occur with borderline personality disorder (BPD).
- BPD is characterized by emotional dysregulation, interpersonal difficulties, and fears of abandonment.
- BPD often includes suicidal and non-suicidal self-injury.
- MDMA-AP is hypothesized to be effective for BPD, but its application to CPTSD and BPD has not been systematically reviewed.
