This isn't a replacement for an evaluation ofc, but I'm beginning to think I have a personality disorder?

I'm a confused person. It seems that all I seek is the next interesting experience, and have never had any long-term goals. I have anxiety and ADHD and some signs of autism.

I've done volunteer work just to have something to do...(e.g. not to help people)

I nostalgically think of high school as a better time, and then think of it as a terrible, lonely time.

For example, all the relationships I've had went from me idealizing the person as the love of my life, to wanting to ignore them whenever I felt like it, or suddenly wanting to break up with them because I didn't feel like doing something they wanted to do that day, or contemplating an open relationship but also wanting monogamy and constantly changing feelings on which one I've wanted.

In therapy, from week to week, I would come to the therapist with different issues, and meander between my feelings about things.

I have a heavy fear of abandonment and often assume the worst from a text that doesn't get a reply VERY quickly.

I've gotten mad at someone for not taking the band I'm in seriously enough, and then later felt that playing music wasn't that big of a priority.

I've had a pattern of continuously oversharing word-vomit about my problems or romantic life with people.

In my last relationship, I asked someone for advice while simultaneously wanting to break up with her (because I might want to travel or wouldn't be interested in doing long-distance), and in part stayed with her to save money....while also wanting to help her with her mental issues.

Every career I can think of just sounds like "sure, whatever"; I bore of every job.

I claim I don't like drama/gossip, while I actually get excited over hearing about and being involved in it.

Hello DSFJALKSDJF: I see this is your first post here on PC. So... welcome to Psych Central. You're probably already aware, but we here on PC cannot offer mental health diagnoses. Plus I'm not a mental health professional. So I can't offer anything with regard to what may be going on with you. One thing you might do here on PC, though, would be to take some of the quizzes & tests that are on offer. There's a link to them in the banner at the top of the page. However here is another link as well:

Psychological Quizzes and Tests

Here are links to 2 articles, from Psych Central's archives, 1 on the subject of anxiety & 1 on ADHD which you mentioned you have:

Anxiety Disorders: Symptoms, Types & Treatments | Psych Central

ADHD in Adults

I hope you find PC to be of benefit.

Hello, welcome to PC. Skeezyks provided good links for you; I just want to add that regardless of what's going on for you, I want to give you a ton of credit for being honest with yourself about the challenges you're dealing with.

YES, I COMPLETELY AGREE WITH WHAT THE WISE AND WONDERFUL SKEEZYKS AND BETHRAGS HAVE ALREADY WISELY AND WONDERFULLY SAID BETTER THAN I EVER COULD! Unfortunately we can't diagnose you here as you already know and I'm not sure what you may be struggling with specifically. Definitely consult a Pdoc or Therapist. Reach out to ANY Doctor or Person in your Life who can Help You! Please reach out for help! There IS help available out there! THAT'S A PROMISE! Feel free to PM me anytime when you need Advice And Support or even simply someone to talk to or vent to! I AM SURE PLENTY OF OTHERS WILL ALSO GLADLY, WISELY, KINDLY BEAUTIFULLY AND WONDERFULLY HELP YOU OUT AS WELL! I AM SURE OF THAT! Sending many safe, warm hugs to BOTH you, @DSFJALKSDFJ, your family, your friends and ALL of your Loved Ones! Keep fighting and keep rocking!

Sounds like BPD to me. Do you have mood swings, like feeling really depressed for a few hours or days and then feeling really anxious, or even really happy? Your relationship/friendship troubles are also strongly indicative of this. And switching between things so much is a huge indicator.
