Figure 1. Rates of Remission, Recurrence and New Onsets of PTSD Among Patients with Borderline Personality Disorder over 10 Years of Prospective Follow-Up.
Note: Since a recurrence can only occur after a remission, there is no possibility of a recurrence occurring at the 2-year follow up. Even though recurrence are displayed in this figure at the 4, 6, 8, and 10-year follow-up periods, these recurrences are actually occurring 2, 4, 6, and 8 years after the remission.
