Borderline personality disorder is typically treated with therapy, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). Another type, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) has been found to reduce the risk of suicide. Therapy may occur one-on-one, or in a group.
How We Know Lyme Disease is Sexually Transmitted. The Lyme infection, borrelia, can be sexually transmitted. However we do not know the actual rate or chance of transmission.

A sexually transmitted disease (STD), otherwise known as a sexually transmitted infection (STI), refers to an infection which is passed from one individual to another by way of sexual interaction. It is possible to contract or pass on a sexually transmitted disease through intercourse, anal sex or oral sex. Trichomoniasis is also able to be passed by means of contact with damp towels or surfaces, such as towels, toilet seats and clothing.
