Overview

Mental illnesses are often subject to social stigmatisation. Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is also often stigmatised by professionals. Those affected usually suffer greatly from symptoms that are difficult for outsiders to understand. Until the 1990s, BPD was considered virtually untreatable. In recent years, disorder-specific treatment concepts have been developed that enable successful treatment. This is due in no small part to the recovery movement, which forms an important basis for modern integrated psychiatry. Addressing the social dimension and promoting reintegration are among the core tasks of social work. Despite modern concepts, these factors are often insufficiently taken into account, which can have a significant impact on mental health. This paper therefore deals with how the integration processes after inpatient hospital stays of clients with BPS can be promoted, taking into account the recovery approach, and what perspectives for action this opens up for social work.
