Can you have BPD without the abandonment issues, severe mood swings, self esteem issues, or having problems with being alone?

I took an online test, and I scored right in the middle of having it and not having it.

I can get angry and moody, I spend a lot of money sometimes and I have paranoia and stuff.

But I don't even know what abandonment issues are. I purposefully tell my mom to leave the house so I can watch YouTube without being disturbed.

And my self esteem/self worth/ self identity are all fine. Sometimes I think I'm a bit conceited because of how things are going.

It seems like everytime I show these symptoms, I end up getting my period/spotting. I have PMDD.

And my therapist says that the reason I was crabby and moody last week was because I was getting an unscheduled period. And I was angry yesterday and less then 20 minutes later, I started spotting.

I'm just confused. My doctor says I don't have it. So I guess maybe I should listen to him. I just don't understand this anger I have.

Are those online tests not an accurate reflection?

Hmmm...have you decided you are borderline based on an online quiz? I think you should listen to your Therapist about this. There is more to diagnosing a mental condition than taking a quiz.

They're accurate, only if you allow them to be
