BPD borders on all 10 personality disorders?

Postby sickofbeinginvalid » Mon May 07, 2018 6:51 pm

This includes: Histrionic, Anti-social, Narcissistic, Avoidant, Obsessive-compulsive, Schizoid, Schizotypal, Paranoid, and Dependent personality disorders.

Is this really accurate? I heard this on the internet somewhere.

i'll speak if the things are true for me:

yes. the black n white thinking could be behind this. i thought a common cold was equivalent to getting cancer n i'd freak out. it was either all good and i'd get super excited or all bad n i'd get super depressed.

, Anti-social,
yes. this comes with disocciation n i'd go into mute mode with people around me.
Narcissistic,
yes. been there. again i think its due to black n white thinking toward myself. either i'm a genius and superior species or i'm slime n muck

Avoidant,
matches with anti-social. i'd avoid communciation with people. i preferred text n email over verbal communication.

Obsessive-compulsive
yes. this could be the inner child schema. that i want it now means i want it now.
, Schizoid, Schizotypal,
dont know what these 2 mean
Paranoid
yes. i'd freak out n start making up theories in my head. in all the theories i was the good guy or the victim whereas the world was evil.
,
and Dependent personality disorders.
yes. this is again the inner child who is constantly seeking validation.

Is this really accurate? I heard this on the internet somewhere.

Not exactly. The terms borderline comes from back when people believed that mental illness was a continuum between neurosis and psychosis and that borderline personality disorder was on the border between them. That said, potential symptoms do seem to include everything and the kitchen sink and present themselves in a variety of ways.
Official dx: DDNOS, BPD
Suspected dx: C-PTSD

I don't know however I've read up on all of them and I relate to them a lot. Once I read through the dsm on all of them and thought hang on, they all sound like me at different points of my life.
I know everyone does to some degree but there are certain pds that I wouldn't say I meet all the criteria for but feel (in my unprofessional opinion) I have some of the traits very strongly. And find them incredibly relatable.
