Without an official statement from the celebrity themselves, it is practically not possible to say surely which of the celebrities suffer from Borderline personality disorder. But looking at their behavior throughout the years and comparing them with the symptoms of borderline personality disorder some speculations can be made. Below is the list of such celebrities that exhibit the symptoms f borderline personality disorder. 

Jim Carry

Jim Carry has been making us laugh and cry with his variety of roles over the years as an actor. He made us laugh with his iconic role in the movie “The Mask” and made us cry along with his performance in “Eternal Sunshine of Spotless Minds.” 

The personal life of this comedic actor however hasn’t been all fun and laughter. Jim has been quite vocal about his personal life and the many mental disorders he battled. Looking at his behavioral history, many speculate that Borderline personality disorder is one of the disorders that he receives treatment for. 

Despite his struggle, Carry has never failed to entertain us. In 2020, we saw him on the big screen with his movie ‘Sonic the Hedgehog’ where he gave a stellar performance as always, and we can’t wait to see what the actor has in store for us next.    

Amy Winehouse

The lovely Amy Winehouse had it all when it comes to being a singer. She had the perfect voice, heartfelt beautiful lyrics,s and the singing ability that made her the favorite of many. 

Sadly just at the age of 27, the singer passed away from alcohol poisoning. It might be the alcohol that killed her, but we all know that the real cause of her death was the many mental illnesses she suffered from. Borderline personality disorder might have been one of these disorders. 

The world missed out on the many wonderful creations Amy might have given us if she was still with us. We do miss her to this day and wish that no one has to suffer like her. 

Robbie Williams

English singer Robbie Williams wasn’t lying when he said that he had mental disorders in his head that wants to kill him. 

Although he specifically didn’t mention borderline personality disorder, it can be easily deduced from his 2008 interview. We wish that the singer could recover from his conditions and gift the world more of his mind-blowing music. 

Lindsay Lohan

Lindsey Lohan’s career at one time seemed like a sure thing. She was talented and had movies like ‘Mean Girls’ and ‘Parent’s Trap’ under her belt which made her a household name. 

But a slew of bad publicity made her career what it is today. She had a drug scandal and even been to prison. All of these seriously tarnished her reputation, and many have speculated about her mental well-being. 

Many believe that Lohan suffers from borderline personality disorder, however,r some believe that her condition resembles Histrionic personality disorder. Whatever it is, we wish Lohan would have a healthy recovery, so that this talented actress can return to the screen with her full potential.
