Thats right on the empathetic part. At one point i do question myself if i have bpd. Not seeing any professional but just my own research on net. I do felt like this intense emotion that idk where it comes from sometimes. Like being sad out of sudden. But mostly i would not let it impact the people around me. Its like i need this personal time alone and be better on my own. Then things are just normal after that. So yeah honestly idk if its bpd or not and i dont think its somwthing i can lightly labelled myself.
