    Author: Nishizono-Maher A, Ikuta N, Ogiso Y, Moriya N, Miyake Y, Minakawa K.
    Journal: J Affect Disord; 1993 Aug; 28(4):279-85. PubMed ID: 8227764.
    Abstract:
    The authors investigated the prevalence of psychotic symptoms in depression and borderline personality disorder employing the Diagnostic Interview for Borderlines. Clear-cut delusions and hallucinations were rare among the borderlines. However, derealization and depersonalization symptoms were common and were found to be prevalent as among depressives. The prevalence of these symptoms among patients with both borderline personality disorder and depression was similar to that among patients with only borderline personality disorder or depression. The relationship between depression and borderline personality disorder and the significance of psychotic symptoms in these disorders is discussed.
