This study aims to analyze the relationship between childhood trauma and borderline personality disorder. This research approach uses a qualitative method of literature study sourced from various kinds of references that have academic credibility, including scientific journals, relevant textbooks, research articles, and reports from studies that have been conducted previously. The results of the study showed that there was a correlation between childhood trauma and borderline personality disorder behavior. There is a proportional relationship between the level of childhood trauma and the level of borderline personality disorder experienced, where the higher the intensity of childhood trauma experienced by a person, the higher the tendency for borderline personality disorder to develop in the individual. On the other hand, the lower the level of childhood trauma experienced, the lower the manifestations of borderline personality disorder that appear. Childhood trauma has played a very large role as an etiological factor in the emergence of this psychiatric condition. This makes it possible to conceptualize the different forms of adaptation that individuals make to childhood trauma, or other forms of trauma that range from multiple personality disorders to severe abuse.
