How are you @Blue_Bird?

I'm so glad to see that there's a bit of activity on this thread. I haven't been diagnosed with BPD/EUPD, but I know I have a few traits. It seems to me that anyone who experienced chronic childhood trauma has at least some BPD traits. And so often bipolar disorder and BPD overlap.

I've always been confused by the "chronic feelings of emptiness" as one of the symptoms of BPD. I don't think I have that feeling, but then again I don't understand exactly what "feelings of emptiness" means. Can someone here describe it?
