Thanks for the link!
I think I get tired faster of being emotional than what BPD people seem to be doing. But yeah I'll research this more.
I am by default a somewhat detached type of person is what I was trying to indicate by saying that I'm not naturally emotional. Not just in times of crisis. Though I was not so schizoid-like when I was younger.
I don't hallucinate about bugs or anything like that. Sure we can't truly know if this world even exists or if you are dreaming it all but I prefer to assume that it does exist - and in the same fashion I also prefer to assume that my memories have not all got corrupted rendering me unable to compare my current mind states and beliefs and the overall quality of my connection to reality in general, to my earlier states from times when I was definitely still normal without symptoms. Hence I'm rather sure that I'm not psychotic. Yes I have had some unpleasant changes in my mental states but not outright psychotic outside those two episodes.
