The aim of this research was to illuminate the experience of abandonment by persons meeting criteria for borderline personality disorder in order to differentiate it from the abandonments that we all experience in the course of our lives. Four female participants, between the ages of 26 and 53, who met the <italic>DSM-IV</italic> criteria for BPD and were in psychotherapy were asked to describe an experience in which they felt abandoned. Data was analyzed according to an empirical-phenomenological method.

520 $a The aim of this research was to illuminate the experience of abandonment by persons meeting criteria for borderline personality disorder in order to differentiate it from the abandonments that we all experience in the course of our lives. Four female participants, between the ages of 26 and 53, who met the <italic>DSM-IV</italic> criteria for BPD and were in psychotherapy were asked to describe an experience in which they felt abandoned. Data was analyzed according to an empirical-phenomenological method.
520 $a In persons meeting criteria for BPD, the experience of abandonment occurs in a historical context that includes many previous experiences at a young age of being abandoned by a parent. These experiences lay the ground upon which all subsequent losses become more difficult to navigate and make the subject more sensitive and attuned to the possibility of being abandoned. Abandonment becomes a theme through which she interprets and makes sense of her experiences.
520 $a In being abandoned, the subject experiences the absence, loss, or rejection of a family member upon whom she relies for care, support, and affirmation. She feels that the other is ‘not there’ for her, thereby leaving her alone to navigate her world. Further, she feels that the other's withdrawal is intentional and purposive due to something she has done. She feels devalued and humiliated by the other. The experience brings up prior feelings of worthlessness, shame, feeling unwanted, and devalued by others.
520 $a The experience involves unbearable pain for an extended time during and after the event. She finds ways to numb herself to avoid feeling. Altering her bodily experience allows her to manage and transform her pain—in a healthy direction if she is athletic, or through other ways of coping such as dissociating, self-cutting, substance abuse, or sexual promiscuity. She feels alone, unable to receive comfort or support from others. Her relations with others become estranged and distanced; she lives an ongoing difficulty trusting others. Time is frozen; the past and future collapse into the present, and she is unable to move forward and get on with living. She lives out the reported experience of abandonment in an anxious and depressed attunement to her world.
520 $a Following this event, there is a sense of “time standing still.” The event remains fresh in her memory and even years later the emotions originally evoked by that experience are strongly felt. Something remains unresolved and unfinished for the subject. She is unable to go beyond or ‘get over’ what happened. The experience has a life-altering influence on the subject and the way she lives. Implications for psychotherapy are discussed.
