If you often experience intense emotions, fear of abandonment, or a shifting sense of self, you are not alone. These feelings can be confusing, overwhelming, and sometimes difficult to explain. This self-assessment offers a private, supportive opportunity to reflect on patterns commonly associated with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD).
Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a recognised mental health condition that affects how a person relates to themselves and others. It is characterised by intense emotions, difficulties in relationships, a fear of abandonment, impulsive behaviours, and an often unstable sense of identity.
