Sadgirl92, everyone has their own process and they all take time... .how much isn't linear.  For me, my journey came in pieces and no one piece was an ah ha moment.  No light bulbs per sa, just little understandings that kept me on my way.  Sure, some have those  :light: moments, but I think the majority is a construction of understanding and processing... .
My answer... .is time and effort... .much like anything else.  Hope this makes sense.

That definitely makes sense. The more articles, posts I read the more I feel like I will be ok. So yes I understand. Just wondering if something someone found on here was comforting to them

If you have not read the book Stop Walking on Eggshells, that's a good place to start.   :)

Also, if you will note the tools and lessons on the right margin of this page... .they are your guide in helping vastly improve your situation.  Most of us here understand we cannot change our person with BPD, but we can change how we react to and communicate with them.  Centering ourselves and being in control goes a long way in the improvement process.
