Exactly what Blue Bird said. I was misdiagnosed at schizoaffective, and none of those symptoms really mirror or match BPD. In fact, people with schizoaffective disorder tend to have a flat affect. There are psychotic symptoms, and psychotic symptoms do not go with BPD. Like Blue Bird said, BPD is a personality disorder. That's like a whole other ball park.

Unless you are getting BPD confused with Bipolar Disorder. With Bipolar Type II you can have psychotic features, which is what I have. But I'm not considered schizophrenic and it has nothing to do with my BPD diagnosis.
