hai saint, does it ever scare you or make you uncomfortable how people will come to you trying to police your identity? like people who feel they have the right to accuse others of stealing your identity without you even being okay with it? they just kind of feel entitled to do things like that and act on your behalf? I only ask because I feel like if I were in your shoes it would scare me to think that people feel like they have the right to "protect" me or something when they don't even know who I am ykwim? sorry if this is worded weird!
lowkey I'm also kind of curious about how being so popular interacts with your HPD and NPD? do you feel like at any point it made you worse? sorry for all the questions! have a good day!

HII ANON these are all really good questions !! a lot of this i’ve really wanted to elaborate on for a while now …
SO to answer the first one, it absolutely is extremely strange to me that people will go out of their way to accuse others of copying me. this has been an issue for as long as i can remember now … it’s very parasocial for people who consider themselves ‘fans’ to harass others on my behalf, and it’s even led to me being accused of sending them to attack others myself !! i’ve never done that
as well as this, when people genuinely are trying to be me that’s even more creepy to me … it’s happened so often now by so many people and it makes me wonder when it’ll stop honestly !! i’ve been very popular for a long time now and i thought it may slow down a bit when i stopped being active in places like rentrycord … but so far no luck yet !! instead people love to try and steal my identity on simply plural?? which is even stranger since my alters are a part of me and my disorder specifically and cannot be replicated like that by strangers 😭😭 my most recent case even had someone go out of their way to copy multiple of my alters on sp and their rentries, and even changed their sp pfp to my current one just with slightly different colouring !! and that was only because my current sp colouring is NOT public LOL … but anyway !! i wish people didn’t feel the need to act on my behalf or harass others in my name, it makes me look awful and unapproachable when really im not at all !!
as for the second question, i can 100% say that my npd and hpd specifically got SO much worse when i was in the spotlight 24/7 … nowadays my symptoms are less severe, but back in 2024 for example i became very paranoid, angry, bitter, resentful, jealous and reactive because of the constant spotlight along with the stalking, copying and unnecessary hatred that came with rumours being spread about me !! i even had people say they targeted me out of my whole friend group back then simply because i was the most popular … it was really very strange and had a big impact on me. people said awful things to and about me that i wont even repeat on here LOL 😭 but as i said, nowadays i am far less angry and sensitive !! i think being sensitive to criticism is an inherent part of anyone with npd and hpd, and i definitely believe i got almost addicted to the supply i got from all the attention i received, even when it was negative and caused me to have multiple narc crashes and other episodes. i split many times during that era and i still have alters around to this day who hold some of that trauma … but with that being said !! i am so much happier now !! and although i do still need supply and attention, i find it doesnt make me feel out of control and i have less narc highs than i did back then. i was extremely unstable and full of myself to the point i could not be convinced otherwise, and even now its sometimes hard not to believe everyone is obsessed with me because some people back then genuinely were !! i cant count how many times i was called someone’s idol … but now when i hear those words i feel happier as opposed to fuelled !!
i’m okay with still being popular now ^.^ but i do wish people would stop trying to be me even years later … but thank you SO much for the questions, it really made me sit down and have a good think about all of this and how rentrypin etc has affected my life so far !!
