Title: There is hope, sometimes it works out

Thanks to the posters on this thread (https://bpdfamily.com/message_board/index.php?topic=112992.).

I left the family home three weeks ago as I could no longer handle my partner's apparent BPD tendencies (undiagnosed) . We've been together almost three years and I'm in quandry as to what i should do next. We have both agreed to counselling and I'm hoping we can find a way. I just have these flashbacks of her paranoia and irrational behaviour which prompts me to keep my distance. She wants me to come home but I fear we will fall out again.

First and foremost, how do i manage to inform my partner she could be suffering from BPD? I realise i may have issues too... .but my partner's insecurity and anxiety is killing our relationship and for me that is priority moving forward... .

No one wants to be told they have mental illness. So don't even try.
