Associations were found between anxiety and stigma in relation to mental health service access for borderline personality disorder. Strikingly, most people with borderline personality disorder reported experiencing anxiety accessing mental health services irrespective of having anxiety disorder\/s, indicative of stigma leading to anxiety rather than a by-product of anxiety disorder\/s. People with borderline personality disorder and anxiety disorder\/s were 9.8 times more likely to feel very anxious about\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">not being taken seriously<\/jats:italic>\n                      in mental health services, than respondents with no anxiety disorder\/s.
