You also could just have "Borderline Traits'". Some people get diagnosed that way. I think you have to meet 5 out of the 9 criteria to have the full diagnosis. I meet 8 out of the nine.... I do not get paranoid dissociative symptoms.
But I understand why you would want to get to the bottom of your diagnosis. ALSO.... I believe my depression was caused by my BPD. I think the sever stress I put myself through due to BPD has caused me to slip into a depression. Because I haven't always been depressed. I have had a few smaller bouts with depression but this year takes the cake. So Yea... it all overlaps.
