Abstract
We present a case illustrating common challenges in the hospital management and treatment of comorbid borderline personality disorder and substance use disorders. Experts in the field of personality disorders and substance use disorders discuss various topics and strategies for patient-centered management. Key learning points include evaluation and diagnosis of borderline personality disorder, good psychiatric management, withdrawal and pharmacologic management, harm reduction, team dynamics, and behavior planning all in the hospital setting. This paper provides actionable considerations with elements common to many clinical encounters that present challenges to the consultation-liaison psychiatrist in the general hospital setting.
