Title: Thinking I might be BPD and not her Post by: ItsVal on October 21, 2016, 08:08:28 AM My story -> https://bpdfamily.com/message_board/index.php?topic=299561.0
I'm starting to think I might be the one with BPD traits instead of her, don't know why, she seems ok with over two weeks of NC (although she is struggling with high levels of stress and lashing out both personally and professionaly) but I am the one not coping with it ... . My therapist, who I started seeing because she made me believe I was a pathologic liar, has on multiple occasions expressed that I'm fine but somehow I'm doubting myself again. Anyone else experiencing the same mindtricks on themselves?

It is a question that really should be looked at carefully, with objectivity. We all posses traits of personality disorders, this is an unavoidable consequence of having a personality. It is when one or more of those traits become severely unbalanced is when the question of disorder comes into play.
Be honest with yourself. Look at your own behavior objectively and try to see where there may things you need to work on for your own positive growth. |
