Introduction

[Depression = 72% of members]

I am new to borderline disorder. My husband was only recently diagnosed. I am looking for a support site/group for people who are in a relationship and are taking that leap of faith. My goal is to heal myself from all the abuse I have endured and at the same time support my husband in his recovery. It may take awhile, I realize. I also realize that there are going to be hard times, doubtful times and I would like to be able to speak with others in similar situations. Am I in the right place?
