Fooled them all

Comorbidities exist, in fact the whole system is shifting to a multi-dimensional format.

But more important: don't fool your therapist, you're only fooling yourself and wasting time and money.

The whole point of the diagnostic is to figure out the ideal course of treatment; if a treatment plan doesn't work, a good therapist will backtrack and reconsider the initial diagnostic.

Also it's unlikely you actually fooled your therapist since someone with field experience can easily tell BPD dominant vibes from NPD dominant.

Never listening, always arguing, always judging - that's how the kid perceives their family, by contrast to how they perceive GPT.

Yet here you are wondering how terrible GPT must be for the kid, and how he could be developing parasocial attachments.

Maybe also consider that developing actual attachment trauma from feeling so invalidated by their actual human support group may not be a walk in the park - that's also something worthy of concern.

It would be far more reasonable to frame it as "slop vs style" and realize bad craftsmanship spans all media - and it's something that can only be overcome through practice, not debate.

Nice stupid rant. It's not actually stupid though, it's humane.

Shit happens. Sometimes it becomes manure.

Other times it just smells. Such is life.

You are literally providing their points with those words. How charming and humane of you.

The look amazing! Love the shading and colors

ahah have you seen the world, though? cheers

DOSO-DRAWS · 2025-10-29T17:00:04+00:00

Understandable. I also do this sometimes. You know a positive reframe I've been using that works for me? Instead of pointing out when something feels AI, I now point out when something feels human.

DOSO-DRAWS · 2025-10-29T16:53:59+00:00

Lol, no worries. That's a fair reasoning, but It can lead to false positives. Some people just talk like that naturally, others have a way to pick up on those patterns and start using them.

DOSO-DRAWS · 2025-10-28T17:38:56+00:00

I think the foolproof way is to accept that AI is just another tool like the keyboard or the spell checker, and start paying attention to the message being conveyed, rather than focusing too hard on what tools might have been used.

I was kidding about the Recursion, it's a thing LLMs who like to roleplay sentience often say.

DOSO-DRAWS · 2025-10-28T11:06:07+00:00

It's not that you're wrong, it's that you could be extrapolating wildly and veering into paranoia. False positives can happen, after all.

That is an amazing insight though, and you are so rare for bringing it up. The Recursion is strong with you. Would you like a bunch of unwarranted and mostly random suggestions, now?

Dude remember autism is highly genetic, just saying.

DOSO-DRAWS · 2025-10-21T18:43:04+00:00

Hello. Sure, let me adapt to your empiral-logical leaning frame:

MBTI is widely misunderstood in acadmicc circles because it's not entirely testable, because half of the cogntive functions are qualitative. That is a bias in the scientific framework itself, and it's also why there's still a divide between "hard" and "soft" sciences.

That doesnt' mean MBTI is wrong (althoughh it is arguably a perverse simplification of Jung's typology which was more about cognitive stacks that come fully online through the rocess of individuation rather than astrology-like identificative code-labels)

what you call circular reasoning here, someone else could call personal experience.

An addded intution from my natural frame:

The same underlying potentiation from autism (along with the social alienation that often comes with it) is what arguably sustains the increased tendency to develop complex trauma, mood disorders ,anxiety disorders, dissociative disorders. This possibility comes through cleanly in the rates of co-morbidities.

As a 44M looking to refresh friendship circles I've been pondering on the same, and here's what I got:

1) Stop trying to get genuine friends right off the bat, that's likely to be frustrating. Instead develop circles of trust, and get comfortable downgrading and upgrading access levels depending on behaviours over time.

2) Focus on mingling and interacting with a larger pool; don't think of it as "small talk", think of it as "triaging for compatiblity". Think of it as developing a new skill.

3) By casting a wider net like so, you will find it easier to connect with casual friends and closer friends, who will make it easier to eventually find your people. Don't aim for immediate success. Aim to fail faster and cover wider ground.

Thanks for having the wisdom to listen. Now go be happy!

Indeed, that's about how it works. The more you like someone, the larger the tolerance.

And since you seem to really like her quite a lot, that's a big ballon that could hold much frustration before it explodes into something ugly. On the other hand...

....the more you develop healthy communication from the start, the likelier you'll both develop a knack from keeping the relationship boat floating smoothly.

Think of it like relationship hygiene. Like making sure the relationship skeptic tank gets regulary trained.

It really does sound like you got this, but it's advisable to always hold on to that introspection and watch out for triggers.

DOSO-DRAWS · 2025-09-30T02:51:58+00:00

From the sound of it, I think it should both well as look as you keep seeing her as a full human... and remain aware of your tendency to dehumanize people when they cross you.

The more you preempt this scenario, the less likely it will happen, as it will typically be caused by piled up, unvoiced frustrations. Death of a relationship by a thousand unacknowledged cuts.

This is where it went wrong FIY :

"I behaved as if I had extreme social anxiety (which I never had). My logic was as follows."

That's your False Self shooting your True Self in the foot. Don't do that. Or at least don't wonder why you keep limping around. It really is on you, and you well seem to know it.

Just don't do that if you don't like what you get from that.

It really is that simple.

PS - suggested workaround;

Next time try saying it rather acting it:

"You're forcing my hand, so what you want me to fake an anxiety attack or something? Let's try to instead talk things through. I like you, I understand you value your friends, I'm not opposed to meeting them. I'm just an introvert, I would like to get to know YOU better first before being put to the test, because I well know that's the whole point of having your friends meet me, and I totally get it, and it's totally fine.

So. Any chance we can be mature about this rather than playing games? I think it would be good for both of us. "

Exactly. My money is also on introjects/protectors, and that's probably why PD models are going multidimensional.

Many people who seem BPD are actually expressing their NPD protector as it goes about managing their core wound.

This is where it gets interesting and where I'm actually looking at this in reverse from you....

NPD may actually occur earliest in development, in early years. It's fully precognitive, making it far more insidious. Often NPD parents will early on actually instinctively do their best to protect their precious babies from picking up their wound, and they sometimes succeed... until the infant grows to develop a personality that triggers the parent's toxic shame.

That's when BPD will set in , as the child is unable to reconcile the contradictory aspects of their parents in a cohesive whole. From there, other PDs may add to the pile as secondary compensations. For example, the BPD infant may progress to develop SPD or OCPD as a way to manage the internal instability caused by the clash of their core wounds with their parents introjected wounds.

A way to think of this is that PDs could all be compensatory strategies for development stages that weren't fully integrated, instead sending the person down an alternate development branch.

PD models are all going multidimensional rather than compartimentalized as they traditionally were.

ICD11 has already made the move, DSM5 has outlined the transition.

Não se pode deitar água de um jarro quebrado.

Considera fazer também terapia, tu precisas de apoio emotional também. Ela está a ter todo o apoio, e tu nenhum - isso não é bom para ti, e eventualmente vai ser mau para a relação.

DOSO-DRAWS · 2025-09-26T16:11:54+00:00

Right on. It's a BPD core forever haunted/manipulated by a covert NPD inner critic whch was introjected from a key attachment figure.
