hey guys, i am new to reddit but i have been diagnosed with borderline personality disorder. i have learned more about some terms that are used such as favorite person, and splitting. i notice now that during my freshman year, i was splitting a lot. i used to think that everything was up or down, black or white, right or left. no in between or grey areas. i feel like i have come a long way with my diagnosis, and i am gladly learning more everyday. i notice that some people discuss an “npd” so i decided to research it. there were a lot of signs and symptoms of my fp having npd, but i am not 100% certain. i actually am dating my fp, and i notice things like, him blaming his parents and others for his own actions, him thinking that his life experiences are more important than other people’s, and him constantly coming to me for help and then telling me that he cannot help me in return. i have a lot of questions, but my main ones are; should i bring this up to him and suggest professional assistance? should i end the relationship altogether? if i stay with him, does this relationship have the potential to blossom? thank you so much for reading this, i hope others might be able to help me a bit and give me their own life experiences, since i am pretty new to understanding this disorder. thank you again! :)
