Doja Cat Opens Up About Borderline Personality Disorder Diagnosis

Doja Cat revealed her borderline personality disorder diagnosis in a TikTok video posted Friday. The "Paint the Town" rapper explained she has struggled with pretending to be happy and appearing okay from a young age, calling BPD an "agonizing condition" she's likely battled "probably forever." She described learning to fake emotions and hide her true feelings, which eventually caught up with her. Doja Cat shared she's been in therapy for years and feels "so relieved and so proud" of her progress, noting BPD requires an "eight-year process of curing, treatment, and healing." The disclosure came while praising Chappell Roan's authenticity, saying she loves how Roan can be "uncomfortable comfortably" and protect herself publicly. Borderline personality disorder causes extreme emotions and impulsiveness according to Mayo Clinic.
