The Seven Network's website for Home and Away features a character profile on ‘Amanda’ – portrayed as a manipulative character that cannot be trusted.
The feature diagnoses Amanda with an 'extreme borderline personality disorder’.
Visitors to the website reported that it caused significant distress as it provided readers advice on how to manage ‘manipulative people’ who take advantage of one’s ‘good-naturedness’.
SANE Australia wrote to the Home & Away Website Producer urging them to reconsider making such assertions about borderline personality disorder in the future.
