Does your mood change frequently? (e.g. every few hours/days)

Do others perceive you as angry and sarcastic?

Are you distrustful of other people?

Do you frequently feel ‘unreal’ or as if things around you are not real?

Do you feel emptiness?

Do you struggle to pinpoint your identity (i.e. who you are)?

Have you made frantic efforts to avoid real or suspected abandonment? (e.g. repeatedly calling someone, begged the person not to leave, clung to another person physically)
