I'm having a lot of symptoms of a shit ton of disorders and mental illnesses and I don't know if they're all from specific mental illnesses/disorders or just one huge thing I'm really confused, whenever I'm asked to state symptoms my mind goes blank because I have really bad memory too I barely remember anything anymore, do u have advice ?

oh yes i do that too!!!! umm maybe write down your symptoms when you think about them, keep a book with them? that’s probably equally hard to remember but it worked for me before!! good luck!

I feel like I have BPD but I'm a minor and I don't have like two different people? like I have ways I act sometimes and I act r e a l l y different but I don't know if they'd be considered people? Do I have to have to different people/personalities to have BPD?

ah i don’t think so, the person who ran this blog felt the same way, not sure if they are just facets or personalities!! so probably it is normal for bpd!

The bugs thing is usually related to psychosis (probably mild) which is not uncommon with BPD, I have psychosis as well as borderline

bpd is actually “borderline psychosis” and that’s why it’s called borderline, or at least that’s what i read

I often get jealous of ppl with worse mental illnesses than mine bc their suffering is more validated. Could this be a bpd thing or am I just a very awful person?

probably a bpd thing, i do it too

I am 16 and I ended puberty 2 years ago so my hormones are calming down but I still have crAZY emotions and I'm starting to attach to bpd symptoms and they feel very relatable almost all of them are and I think I have it... I'm seeing a doctor about it but until they say I don't have it is it ok to self dxx?

and after. a lot of psychs won’t diagnose in minors at all

OCD is an anxiety disorder. Obsessions cause anxiety and the compulsions/rituals are an attempt to remove the anxiety caused by the OCD. However, Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder (OCPD) is a personality disorder I believe.

I'm sorry to bother but what's it called when you have people commenting on stuff in your head? Like they'll tell me what to do and if I go against they get mad, and I usually end up doing it.

think that’s called invasive thoughts

What is constantly seeing bugs in places where there aren't bugs related to? Bc I have that constantly, I'm paranoid about it and put a scarf along my door to stop any coming in and check under furniture all the time with a torch. Is it a phobia?

no idea but i do it too

my fp backstabbed me and said they don't want to be friends anymore and I'm so devastated and full of anger and I think I'm gonna go into a depressive episode..... :'(

relatable.

There's Obsessive Compulsory Disorder and Obsessive Compulsory Personality Disorders. Two different but similar things! OCD is often associated with BPD

when you're having a sleepover with your friend and you literally start to split on her in the middle :)))

Whats a natural system? I've never heard that term before

a natural system is a system not caused by did, it’s where a person consciously or semi-consciously creates a new personality. they are separate from the person who created them, and they may have likes/dislikes, a talking style, an appearance, and even opinions fully separate from the creator.

(this is how i understood it so correct me if i’m wrong)

Hey, I'm just wondering how one can be in a situation where an official diagnosis is not possible? Maybe it's a thing in America or something, I just want to know. I don't want to come over as judgemental or whatever. Love.

some people can’t afford to see a professional, since healthcare isn’t free here. also, it’s hard if not impossible for anyone under 18 to get a diagnosis.
