Title: Could it be me? Post by: Confusedpe on December 28, 2017, 10:26:42 PM Lately I havent been able to shake off the thought that I could have BPD? Maybe NPD?
Before I met my ex I didn’t even know what personality disorders were but now I’m beginning to think that maybe I am the disordered one... . How common is this feeling amongst people who have dated cluster B’s? P.s sorry I didn’t know where to post this Title: Re: Could it be me?

You might want to check out this posting from a few years ago: https://bpdfamily.com/message_board/index.php?topic=233903.0 Sometimes the "fleas" are pretty deep, especially for empaths and codependents who take on other people's energy. I hope this helps! Title: Re: Could it be me? Post by: Tattered Heart on December 29, 2017, 12:27:49 PM What is making you think you may have a PD?
One person having a PD does not necessarily exclude the other having a PD. For instance NPD and BPD people tend to be drawn to each other. We have an article on THe Narcissist-Borderline Couple (https://bpdfamily.com/message_board/index.php?topic=57253.0). At the same time, as risingup4 noted sometimes we can slip in to BPD type behavior because it's what we experience in our relationship. |
