Thing is, considering the nature of the disorder, it may be that many with the same issues as you may not get or seek help at all. Since a lot of the traits can be things that are somewhat acceptable or even desirable by society's standards - outgoing, sometimes bubbly, confidence, etc... it may be that these traits are masked as women/people who are very extroverted. They might just see their traits as not a problem.

I liken this to the situation with BPD and men, like myself. It ws thought at one point that the number of men with BPD was far smaller than it actually is and this results from men not getting help or getting dx'd. Similarly some of the traits as a man look differently as bpd, almost as if they accept the wrecklessness of bpd as "just being a man".

Hope this helps.

Here I am!! Yes, yes, you are not alone with HPD. There are reasons I haven't been here much: I have learned to cope well (therapy and EMDR), and am learning to recognize what triggers an HPD episode of very typical HPD behaviors, and I have been sort of avoiding PC, as it made me feel all-consumed by my disorder when I was on here a lot.

And, let's be honest, HPD women can irritate other HPD women. So, no surprise that we're not all bonding here like they do at the BPD forum, etc.

But I am here - though not often - and I have been, rightfully so, dx-ed with HPD a year or so ago. Yes, we exist.

Thanks for your effort. I'm not an hpd. I work w/ one. I've been trying to learn about it and understand. I hope I'm not breaking a rule on this site. I've discovered another. Seems to have a ton more traffic and posts on this topic. If you feel kind of alone. It's called psych forums,if interested. I'm amongst the adhd's here. There's been ample postings on that. I hope it was helpful, and not offensive or anything. Take care.

Hey, I remember you. How's life been?

Mine's sucked, mostly due to a weeks long manic episode but good old lithium took care of that ****.

I gave her money and had the audacity to ask for respect.

I think the way I am dysfunctional is mostly due to my relationship with my mother. After all, she's the one who taught me.

What do you think about you compared to your mother?

Oh yeah how dare you! Pfft.

Honestly, I have mother issues and those all run deep.

A lot of it is that I feel that I've quite literally become my mother and I hate it.

Do you ever hear her words coming out of your mouth? Doesn't that just freak you out? I hate when I do that.

Still, there are things she said that I vowed as a kid I would never say to my kids, and I never did. Like "because I said so". I hated when she wouldn't give me an answer and said that!

YES. Sometimes I hear myself talk and I internally freak out and go, "oh my God, that's literally what she would have said!" It's insane, and I can't seem to do much to stop it unfortunately. It has the nasty effect of causing me to feel like I'm nothing but a part of her and not my own person at all.

"Because I said so", my mother loves that one too.

I am not saying my mum has a disorder but she could throw some real histrionic OTT wobblers.
When we were getting our holiday photo's developed, she was informed the machine broke down as our was processing and were ruined.
OMG, she then burst into tears and went to town on the poor worker, trying to make her feel guilty. She said it was the only family holiday we had ever been able to afford.

I have mended my relationship with my mum, it is by no means perfect.
Sometimes in the past, I wish she didn't make out we were poor and downtrodden. My parents aren't anymore but I know money was tight as me and my sibling were growing up.

Her melt down seems understandable. Taking those photo must have symbolized so much for her...then the machine broke and the photos were lost!
