i am diagnosed bpd and idk if this is a bpd thing or if i’m just weird lmao. as soon as i read abt any disorder i start picking it apart and become convinced i have it, for example narcissism. i have empathy for others but sometimes it gets shut off depending on what head space i’m in/if i’m consumed w my own shit but i’ll only rly remember the part that links up w narcissism and be like yeah i don’t rly have empathy. and i’ll think abt how i am deeply insecure and manipulate so i’m like yeah i’m a covert narcissist. then i’ll think abt how i always want attention secretly but act humble and i’m like yeah i have hpd and narcissism. then i’ll get anxious if shit isn’t in a certain order and be like shit i might have ocd. i don’t go around saying it lmao cuz that would be shitty but i always do it in my head then i spend hours obsessively researching.
