Abstract: The aim of this paper is to analyse the role of the social worker in mental health, and in particular in Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). The so-called "mental health" corresponds to the well-being condition in which a person finds himself when he reaches a satisfactory personal psychological balance. Mental health is a subjective condition that depends on different factors (personal, relational, social, economic) and changes as a result of the vicissitudes of life. The subject with mental discomfort lives in a state of suffering: for fear, for loss of confidence in himself or in others, for inability to love, to work, for loneliness. When psychic discomfort persists for a long time it can result in a real mental illness. The most common psychiatric diseases are: depression, anxiety disorder, panic attacks, the large group of psychoses, including schizophrenia. In the past, people with severe mental illness were isolated in asylums, places of segregation rather than places of care. The mentally ill was considered "dangerous to society", so he had to be removed. Today, the Social Worker fits into this delicate context as a professional who contributes to the achievement of the state of health understood by the World Health Organization (WHO), as "complete well-being, physical, mental and social"
