Question

Is this a sign of a larger personality disorder or is it a disorder all to itself? It reminds me of a huge symptom of someone who has Borderline Personality Disorder. Just curious to know your thoughts on that. Thanks!

They're classified as different disorders by psychiatrists. They're similar in a lot of ways but they do have some subtle differences. For example, borderlines are more likely to have extreme anxiety issues about being abandoned. They're both very difficult personalities to deal with though.
