I sit down with myself and look at things I would like to be like or people I'd like to emulate and write down HOW I can be more like them in my way. Then if I Do and CAN do it regularly I learn more of who I am. Do I flounder still? Yes. But it has helped me a lot when I start to freak out about identity and realize I have a set personality shining enough that I can be just ME.
One of the criteria of BPD is lack of identity so struggling with your identity can be due to it. I am always changing my interests and I don't know what gender I am, can't seem to figure it out

Recently was diagnosed with BPD and I feel so confused about how this effects my identity or if it should even effect it at all.
