Borderline personality disorder is characterized by fearlessness and a lack of empathy, guilt, and remorse.

Borderline personality disorder is actually characterized by intense and unstable emotions, a distorted sense of self, and difficulty in relationships. People with BPD often have fears of abandonment, impulsivity, self-harm behaviors, and emotional dysregulation. They may struggle with empathy, but not because they lack it entirely - rather, they may have difficulty regulating their emotions and understanding the perspectives of others. Guilt and remorse may also be experienced intensely by those with BPD.
