NPD:

-I'm hella difficult and stubborn, even if it causes my downfall or drives people away from me.

-My standards for things/people are ridiculously high.

-I think lacking empathy makes me relate less to others. I can understand what people are feeling or where they're coming from, and people do like me (at least until they get too close for too long), but without actually caring, there's a certain level of disconnectedness.

ASPD traits:

-I have a horrible temper and authority issues that have caused me to have a hard time holding a job.

-I have poor self control. That's also caused problems in school and in holding a job. If I don't want to do something, I don't have that guilty, nagging feeling that people talk about, so I just simply don't do it, then it comes back to bite me in the ass and only then am I seemingly able to give a shit.

-Not really caring about right/wrong/morality also affects the way I relate to others.

I have not been medically diagnosed but am 99% sure I have ASPD... I am 34yr old and have had issues with constantly lying to my parents since I was very young and now with my fiancé... Most times it is about something that is minor and know I should be honest about but it's like something takes over and I in a way panic and this impulse to "protect" myself over powers that thought to just be honest and a lot of the time the lie has already come out before my brain can stop it... it has caused A LOT of issues with my parents and my fiancé and no matter how many times I try to stop and want to stop I can't seem to control it.... any suggestions, thoughts or help would be GREATLY appreciated!!

Just noticing how other people naturally seem to do things that I find very difficult

The most challenging thing for me is becoming unstuck. Once I get stuck, I can't seem to get unstuck. Then the downward spiral begins. I start to remember all the horrible things that have been said to me, I see nothing positive about my life and I want a divorce. People think I'm a careless bitch but really I just a want a good friend.

I think for me it's the self sabotaging that I tend to do. I work really hard to get myself into a good place but as soon as I perceive anything bad happening I'm like a rabbit caught in headlights. Like other peeps have mentioned here it's the downward spiral then that I can't get out myself out of.

@Cathlisa

Hiya! You're welcome and that's a great question .I have found mindfulness really helpful to just be aware of if I'm getting into a negative spiral and to help me try and make a conscious choice about what could help the situation as opposed to being pulled into automatic coping mechanisms that aren't always helpful.

Schizoid and Antisocial PD:

I hate everyone except for a few people. Some of them I even want to hurt or worse. I don't relate to others hardly at all which annoys people and then they in turn get mad at me for. Wanting to go out and to some spontaneous shit but not having the motivation or actual "umph" to leave my room.

I was diagnosed with bpd, but my actions are like 60% bpd And 99% sociopathy. I have feelings, but lot I fake And lot straight negative like pain or hate or irritation. To OP, we share some stuff, worst part is for mě I have Zero motivation for others And motivation for me is way too Long term.
