I meet 8 of the 9 criteria too but have never been diagnosed borderline. The criteria seem to apply to more than just borderline personality disorder. They overlap to other disorders too.
Hmm. Wonder if I should look into this.
I find all of the criterion of "mental" disorders are very similar. It's hard to distinguish between disorders when the criteria is so vaguely general.
Have you ever actually investigated the possibility that you suffer from borderline personality disorder with your doctor?
> I never see anyone writing about borderline personality disorder. Is it because you are ashamed? I could write that I feel like blowing my head off and I would not be ashamed of admiting to it on this board.

> I am most likely borderline as I meet 8 of the 9 criteria so I would like to here experiences of any borderlines on this board. I sure could tell ya an experience or two.
