Wonder if my son has BPd/NPD

« on: November 06, 2020, 04:14:09 AM »

Hi there
My son has ASD (aspergers), but I have wondered often if he has BPD/NPD. He is almost 18.
Is this something others have experienced?
Thank u

hi SB,
I stumbled upon this section of the site yesterday as I was wondering something similiar, ie is it possible to have both NPD and BPD? there are entire threads on comorbity I think you may find helpful (not a board expert, but I found this somehow despite being new)
