Make therapies (DBT) and help more accessible to individuals with BPD

Petition Details

As an individual who has been failed by the NHS over treatment regarding BPD, I want to get the government to realise how big of an issue this is. Statistics show suicide rates are higher in individuals with BPD than the average individual. Please help us and sign this petition.

Additional Information

Around 9 percent of people with BPD complete suicide, which is more than 50 times the rate of suicide in the general population. Almost 80% of those with BPD report a history of suicide attempts.
