GAD coupled with PTSD vs PD??

Could someone suffering from Generalized Anxiety Disorder together with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder have same or similar symptoms/traits to someone who suffers from Cluster B Personality Disorders?

absolutely.. are you mainly referring to traits of BPD..?

(AvPD traits are also really common)

PTSD itself is a really chameleon type of disorder.. hard work to spot in some cases.

Yes mainly traits of BPD

Yes it's possible, i have both (along with C-PTSD and OCD). GAD and PTSD are very common with BPD.

Are you worried you might have BPD?

No I suspect my girlfriend of 1 year may have BPD or at least shows many signs :/ I started noticing early on just didn't want to believe what I read and didn't want to jump to anything, we live together so its kinda hard. She did mention she has GAD since very young, perhaps predisposed. Her mom took her own life when she was 16. I am trying to find ways to communicate with her and support her as much as I can, we often fight because I fall short in that aspect, she feels like I don't support her, that I take priority in my family and work over her. Just wanted to get more insight and perhaps learn something about GAD and hopefully have a more fulfilling relationship. I honestly don't even know where to start, there has been so much that happened in the past year.
