Is this bpd

I think I have BDP. I know there was something wrong with me before this because sometimes i didn't act normally like other people around me. I changed my personality a lot, more like i mimicked the personalities of other people who are likable by the society. But it didn't last long and I would start to follow another one. I don't know which one is the real me.
Sometimes, I am emotionally unstable. I would feel so sad and cry for no reason, and the next minute I would act like nothing had happened. I have a best friend and i love her a lot. But sometimes when she did something that didn't show she cared for me and such, even if it was just a small matter like didn't reply my message I'll start to get depressed and hated her. But after that I would love her back. It's so confusing and I am tired of feeling this way.
I'm moderately attractive since it is pretty easy for me to get the guys to like me but the hard part is to maintain the relationship. I haven't been in a proper relationship for a long time because I fear that the more they know me, then they will see what a bad person I am and I don't want that to happen.
I don't like to be with people who are more superior than me because it made me feel insecure. Being with people who i think are at the same or lower level than me made me feel comfortable.
I want to seek for medical treatment and see the psychiatrist for help. But I'm currently doing a pre-medic programme under government scholarship and i am afraid this will affect my future. What should i do?

Is It Normal?

  • we could all find instances where we see ourselves when looking at the symptoms of borderline personality disorder.

    the difference with you, though, is that you are managing to function.

  • I don't mean bipolar but borderline personality disorder. It's just that some of the symptoms are similar to what i'm facing now

  • You may have traits of BPD but not the diagnosis. Check out Marcia Linehan's work (Dialectical Behavioral Therapy or DBT). This might be helpful for you.

  • I feel precisely the same as what you mentioned in your posts but I don't believe that either you or I, are BPD.

    Possible depressed and badly insecure with anxiety issues but if something is bothering you that much go and ask your doctor. They'll know better than anyone.

    As for your future, it shouldn't affect it and only would if you let it.

  • That's not bipolar. Bipolar includes manic states. You can look it up in the PTSD I think that's what it's called just google bipolar and PTSD. You may have some other form of depression
