    Wait, does borderline personality mean you're always on the borderline of someone else's personality? I thought it was similar to Bipolar.

    There's a lot of copying and adapting traits from whoever comes off as confident, successful, etc because they have no confidence in their own identity

    *Narcissistic Personality Disorder. The two are often conflated.

    Narcissists emulate others and steal their personalities because they don't have an identity of their own.

    Borderlines can cycle rapidly back and forth between fawning and animosity, but they rarely "steal" an entire personality. Or continue to mirror once the person has left.
