Unstable Personality Disorder

Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder (EUPD), also known as Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), affects social functioning, mood stability, and can lead to impulsive or self-harming behaviors. Treatment can be costly, with success rates ranging from 35% to 50%. Researchers are now exploring alternative treatments to complement traditional therapies.

One promising addition to EUPD treatment is the use of cannabis, also known as weed. It’s affordable, and its components can benefit patients with EUPD. Those who cannot afford multiple treatments may explore cheap weed online deals for cost-effective options.

Key Takeaways:

  • Participants with EUPD inhaling THC or using high CBD experience positive results in managing symptoms.
  • High doses of CBD (800 mg/day) and THC flower treatment can increase circulating levels of anandamide.
  • Dysfunction in the endocannabinoid system, which regulates emotions and stress, contributes to Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder.

Emotionally Unstable Personality Disorder or Borderline Personality Disorder

EUPD is a mental health condition that affects how people view themselves and relate to others, which can lead to difficulties in daily life. It involves intense, unstable relationships, impulsiveness, and a distorted self-image.

While its exact causes are unclear, genetics, trauma, and neurotransmitter imbalances may play a role. Dysfunction in the endocannabinoid system, which regulates emotion and stress, may contribute to EUPD symptoms.

EUPD Treatment

Despite guidelines stating that no drugs are effective for EUPD, clinicians prescribe medications like antipsychotics and antidepressants.

Antipsychotic and sedative medications can sometimes be helpful for short-term crisis management or for treating comorbid conditions. A significant proportion of patients with EUPD—up to 90% in some reports—take at least one psychotropic medication, including antipsychotics, antidepressants, mood stabilizers, and sedatives.

Polypharmacy is common among these patients. Most of these medications are associated with side effects and are used off-label for EUPD. While some medicines may alleviate specific symptoms, they do not change the overall prognosis of the condition.

Cannabis-Based Medicine for EUPD (CBM)

Cannabis-based medicines are products derived from the cannabis plant. They contain cannabinoids, the active compounds found in the plant, such as tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD). These medicines treat medical conditions and symptoms, such as pain, inflammation, anxiety, seizures, and more.

Multiple studies currently elaborate on the effects on mental health. For example, research published in the journal Frontiers in Psychiatry indicates that marijuana can improve depression and enhance sleep quality and overall quality of life. These findings, among others, provide strong justification for further research into the effects of marijuana on various types of mental illnesses.

CBM for Unstable Personality Disorder

A narrative review and case series study in 2022 highlighted the use of cannabinoids for managing symptoms of EUPD in seven patients. The researchers explore the cellular and molecular mechanisms and review current evidence for cannabis-based medicinal products (CBMP) as a potential treatment for EUPD.

Materials and Methods

ParticipantsDiagnosed with EUPD who had tried at least one medication and one form of psychotherapy
At least one follow-up review at a Zerenia clinic, with patient-reported outcome measures (PROMS) records. 
CBM UsedDried Flower for inhalation (20-60g per month)Oral Extracts with THC (9-10mg/day), and CBD (40mg/day).
Formulation:Chemotype 1: High THC, low CBD.Chemotype 2: Balanced THC and CBD.Chemotype 3: High CBD, low THC.
MeasurementClinical Global Impression Improvement (CGI-I) Scale: A 1-7 scale where 1 indicates “very much improved” and 7 indicates “very much worse.”
Patient’s Global Impression of Change (PGIC) Scale: A 1-7 scale where 1 represents “no change or worse” and 7 signifies “a great deal better and a considerable improvement.”

Researchers personalized dosing through slow titration and provided guidelines for increasing the dose until the patient achieved satisfactory symptom control or observed side effects.

Results

At a one-month follow-up, six participants reported improvements, with five rating their change as a six on the PGIC scale. Only one patient, who received a chemotype 2 oral extract, saw no benefit, which suggests that inhaled tetrahydrocannabinol or higher oral cannabidiol doses might be more effective.

All participants tolerated the treatment well, with no reported side effects, which is important for adherence. Younger patients may feel more comfortable with medical cannabis despite societal stigma. 

Hypothesis

According to researchers, exogenous cannabinoids might help restore the tonic activation of the endocannabinoid system (ECS) in the central nervous system (CNS). THC directly activates presynaptic CB1 receptors, and both cannabinoids bind to fatty-acid binding proteins (FABPs), which may slow down the deactivation of anandamide.

High doses of oral cannabidiol (800 mg/day) and patients treated with chemotype 1 flower show higher levels of anandamide in circulation. It’s uncertain whether this is due to cannabidiol affecting anandamide transport or degradation or if it acts on other molecular targets. In contrast, psychiatric drugs commonly take 2-3 weeks for initial effects and longer for patients to achieve remission.

The quick symptom relief can be important during an “EUPD crisis,” when distressed patients turn to benzodiazepines and other anxiety medications. However, these drugs can lead to rapid tolerance and dependence.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does cheap marijuana have poor quality?

No, price is not the sole indicator of product quality. You can assess quality by examining the product’s physical characteristics and trying it yourself. Some dispensaries offer lower prices through monthly or clearance sales. If a dispensary’s prices are lower than the cannabis industry standard, it may cause quality concerns.

Does marijuana cause any adverse effects when managing BPD?

Marijuana has no adverse side effects reported by participants in the study. This is significant for medication adherence, as a review of 36 studies found that side effects accounted for 28% of patients’ non-adherence to antipsychotics. A negative attitude toward antipsychotic medication was the second most common reason for intentional non-adherence, at 30.5%.

What is the quickest way to experience the effects of cannabinoids for an EUPD problem?

Smoking, vaping, and dabbing are the fastest methods to experience the effects of cannabinoids. In the study, participants used vaping to consume dried flower. While smoking and vaping have similar effects, the difference lies in inhaling smoke (from smoking) versus vapour (from vaping). Dabbing, which involves consuming concentrates, also provides a rapid onset of effects.

How many times can I smoke or vape to manage my symptoms?

The effectiveness of cannabis strains and other weed products depends on what works best for you. In the study, researchers allowed patients to adjust their daily dose (between 0.5 and 2 grams per day) as long as they did not exceed the monthly limit. For extracts, patients recorded their daily dosage.
