My impression from stories of detransitioners is that BPD often plays a role as well due to a general unstable sense of identity. I think that one study on trans-identified people and personality disorders that was posted here some time ago had a relatively high rate of BPD for TiFs at least if I remember correctly.

It would make sense to me, given what I see of them online, that TiFs have a higher rate of BPD and TiMs a higher rate of NPD, but I don't recall seeing an actual study of the former.
