As a result, these induced emotions remain repressed or dissociated from the self, but they continue to play a major role in the borderline's lifestyle. It will be demonstrated that the jealous object, and not the self, is the main factor that interferes with the borderline's growth and progress in treatment. Although a borderline patient may employ primitive defenses such as projective identification and splitting as his primary mode of coping with the bad introject as has been stated by Klein, Kernberg and other writers, I would like to suggest that a borderline patient also employs what I would call dual splittingand dual projective identificationin order to maintain a symbiotic relationship between the selfand its jealous object.
