I have BPD. I have been told I'm an attention seeker. I've got blue hair, tattoos and piercings. I'm quite opinionated and extroverted. I flirt a lot. So forth and so on. I am not to the extremes that you are talking about, but I can understand to a degree.

Why do we seek attention? Well in my specific case I think I developed BPD when my dad abandoned me as a child. I think it would be reasonable to concur that I seek attention to make up for what I lacked as a child, to feel wanted and purposeful.

People who seek attention likely need it for their heart and souls. I imagine how hurt someone must be on the inside to fake cancer. Like the song says: what the world needs now is love, sweet love. Its the only thing there is just too little of.
