Have you looked at the the coping board yet? There are people there talking about having traits from their parents and dealing with them. You might find that board more positive.

Hello and welcome to bpdfamily :) Please tell us more when you feel comfortable doing so, and let us know what kind of help and support you hope to get here. Are there specific articles you can point us to that can educate us about BPD parents doing the work alongside their BPD kids (or BPD traits)? This would be a helpful resource for people here, especially for those who have a lineage of BPD in their families. It takes a lot of courage to stick with therapy, and your kids are lucky that you're shining light on things. My T talks about it as "changing the family script." |iiii What ages are your kids, and how are they doing? I hope you'll keep posting and share how things are going when you feel comfortable. This is a really helpful place for learning, support, and compassion. LnL |
