10 years of living with a child who has BPD, here to chat and learn with you

[Yoshi-family]

We’ve been living with a child who has BPD for over 10 years now and have some struggled significantly along the way this is my first post trying to see where I can have some ongoing chat hopefully get some resources maybe some support I’m new to this community.

Is this the right place to start anyone have any other suggestions or advice on how to have some healthy dialogue on some of the troubles that were facing

Our objective is to better understand the struggles our child faces and to learn the skills to improve our relationship and provide a supportive environment and also improve on our own emotional responses, attitudes and effectiveness as a family leaders

Hello Yoshi-family  

Welcome to BPD Family, you have found a great place for all you are looking for! Ongoing chat, resources, and support are all right here; one stop shopping  

How old is your child? My DD25 (25 year old daughter) was diagnosed around age 17 but she has struggled since around age 12. I've struggled as well, so I have an idea of how you might be feeling right now.

There are some great articles and workshops here, as well as many parents who are going/ have gone through many of the same things as we have. I'm kinda new here too but consider this place the best source of reliable information on the internet.

I'm glad you found us, we are here for you.

Hi and welcome.

You are definitely in the right place for support and talking with others who have been or are going through similar struggles.  Like Only Human said, we also have a lot of very helpful articles as well as 1000's of posts you can look through.

I hope you settle in and read and just jump in and start posting.  We understand.
