Casual sex is a problem for those with BPD

Severe impulsiveness, including impulsiveness towards dangerous behavior, is an issue for those with borderline personality disorder. And it is very common for people with this mental illness to turn to casual sex when they are having an episode, either a manic one or a depressive one. Later, they’ll feel very regretful over those encounters, since they didn’t go into them with a clear head. So having access to that, at their fingertips, can be very enabling for some bad behaviors.
