I've seen many papers, articles, and blogs about the deep emotional pain and other severe symptoms of borderline personality disorder. I've seen little about the less intense but more annoying aspects of having and managing BPD, like confusion about identity and trying to hide the disorder. Those of us with BPD have to deal with those aspects every day. Most of the time, I'm not emotionally dysregulated or impulsive, but all the time I have to watch what I say, and be careful what I do, to avoid ruining a friendship or my reputation
