I'm not talking about wondering if you're really a sad person or a happy one; I'm talking about who the H377 you even are, maybe because you change so much (if you do) such as:
what you want to do with your life,
whether you want a lot of people around or want to mostly be left alone,
where you want to live,
whether you want to have pets or hate having to care for them,
whether you want to exercise a lot and eat healthy or you just want to have fun
whether you want a romantic partner or that's more trouble than it's worth
whether you think you have a lot of love to give or that you do people a favor by not getting involved because you KNOW you'll dump them later
Does this happen to anybody else who has bipolar disorder but not borderline personality disorder? I'm always changing. Each time I flipflop it's because I really, clearly see that the other way is all wrong for me and a terrible mistake. I last a few months on my latest "fad" but then, oops, THAT was wrong.
I ask because a while back I was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder (the last 2 times it's been bipolar) and I wonder if that was true also.
I'm not asking for people here to diagnose me, just whether this has been your experience too.
