Patients with BPD assigned to the trial of 10 active tDCS sessions followed by psychotherapy

Patients diagnosed with Borderline Personality disorder and BPDSI score is \> or = 17 will be assigned for active tDCS session (NeuroConn, Germany) candidates will have 20-minute session per day for 10 weekdays in 2 weeks. Then they will attend short term psychotherapy session for 3 months.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

NeuroConn

Intervention Type DEVICE

A neurostimulation decivse that works be generating weak electric current via Electrodes. These electrodes placed on a specific cerebral location, where the defect assumed to be there) to modulate the neuronal activity. This neuronal modulation does not induce or fire action potential but it facilitate action potentials and cerebral interconnection as well corticolimbic connection)
