Do you relate to some of the symptoms of BPD but don’t think you have BPD? Here, I’ve gone through each symptom of BPD and listed disorders which also feature the symptom.
Disorders are not listed in any particular order.
Note: None of the symptoms listed are required for a diagnosis for any of the disorders listed. For example, you may be diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder, but you noticed it is listed on the dissociation symptom. Dissociation is not required for a diagnosis of bipolar (nor is it even in the diagnostic criteria). We are listing the disorders based on possibilities. Someone with Bipolar Disorder can experience dissociation, but they don’t have to.
The Borderline Personality Disorder Checklist
“I have an unstable sense of identity.”
“I have poor self-esteem and excessive self-criticism.”
“I often experience dissociation when I am under stress.”
“I am unstable in my goals, aspirations, values, and/or career plans.”
“I am hypersensitive to the feelings and needs of my peers.”
“There is a lot of instability in my relationships, in that I am needy, mistrustful, and anxious.”
“I am very impulsive and often act on things without planning.”
“I engage in dangerous, risky, and/or potentially self-damaging activities with no concern to my personal limitations.”
“I am easily angered.”
“My emotions are incredibly unstable, and I change moods often (sometimes within minutes), feeling things more intensely than others seem to.”
“I experience intense feelings of nervousness, tenseness, panic, and/or anxiety.”
“I have fears of the future and of falling apart or losing control.”
“I am frequently depressed and feel hopeless and have a difficult time recovering from such moods.”
“I have a fear of abandonment and do my best to avoid it.”
“I have attempted suicide and/or I self-harm.”
Note: All mental disorders have a chance of increasing the risk of suicidal ideations in a person. However, here are some disorders where suicidal and self-harming behaviors are most commonly seen.
“I often feel empty or depressed and have doubts about my future.”
