I saw my diagnosis on NHS and one was above. What that means? Anyone any idea?

It means you have been diagnosed with a “personality disorder”. These can be worded differently, depending on consultant, you may also see this as “emotional dysregulation”.
If you look at the MIND website and look at personality disorders, this will give you further information.
I will state I don’t believe in the wording of disordered personalities (I am a psych nurse), the criteria is normally around responses to childhood trauma and the effect this has on personal relationships and ability to manage emotions as an adult.
