[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pretty sure I have bpd. I hate people and I wish the world and everyone in it would disappear. I want to either die or be locked in some guys basement forever. (Any guys interested let me know )

I hate when I get asked questions like : what do you enjoy?   I enjoy nothing I have learned to lie and say I enjoy traveling, tennis and scrap booking. Truth is I HATE all of that. A few days ago while driving I started screaming I hate scrap booking at the top of my lungs. I was taught to have no personality and to have no likes or opinions. So when asked sometimes I'm just real and those dates end poorly. [/quote]

Former BPD here: I really don't think this is BPD. Sounds like you are seriously depressed and should seek therapy. The hallmark of a BPD person is drama, not misanthropy or depression. Not that you can't be depressed when you have BPD, but it manifests itself differently.

Ironically, a lot of BPD people seem very social, outgoing, funny at first blush. They often have great stories, are fun at parties. Of course they are! They have no boundaries or impulse control, so that can make for some fun times. But when they feel threatened or rejected they can lash out in completely unexpected and cruel ways that seem appropriate to them and to no one else. Then they are genuinely hurt that the person they lashed out at retreats and does not want to interact. Often they will then turn on the charm and be wonderful again to "woo" that person back, until the next blow up, or nasty remark or whatever. It can be a very complicated relationship,  one that leaves the non-BPD emotionally exhausted, confused etc. [/quote]
