Can an online quiz diagnose BPD?

No. Only a qualified professional can diagnose borderline personality disorder, after considering how long experiences have been present, how widely they affect your life and what else could explain them. The tests here help you describe your experiences and prepare for that conversation.

Is the quiz free, and do I need to give my email?

It is free. There is no account, no email and no payment, and you see your result immediately. Your answers stay in your browser.

What should I do if I score highly?

Treat it as a reason to talk to a professional, not as a verdict. Bring your result and two or three concrete examples, and ask what could explain them.

Do I Have BPD? A Quiz and an Honest Answer

A quiz cannot tell you whether you have borderline personality disorder, but it can show whether your experiences are worth discussing with a professional. The 10-question screening quiz here takes two minutes and gives an instant result. If you want more detail, the 32-question version shows a profile across the nine symptom areas.

What a BPD quiz can tell you

Which of the commonly described experiences you recognise
Whether your answers reach the level at which the original research suggested a fuller assessment
Which areas are most frequent for you, if you take the in-depth version
Words for experiences that are hard to describe to a doctor

What it cannot tell you

A quiz cannot see how long something has been happening, whether it appears across your life or only in one relationship, or whether trauma, depression, ADHD, bipolar disorder or autism explains it better. Those questions are the core of a real assessment.

A result below the threshold does not rule BPD out, and a result above it does not confirm it. Many people score highly during a crisis or a painful breakup and differently a few months later.

Signs it is worth asking for an assessment

The experiences have been present for years, usually since your teens or early adulthood
They show up in most relationships and settings, not just one
They cause serious distress or keep disrupting work, study or relationships
You have urges to hurt yourself or thoughts of ending your life

Check your own experiences

Both tests are free and private. Your answers stay in your browser, and the result is a starting point for a conversation, not a diagnosis.
