Title: Wanting to learn to best support my daughter in love with BPD

Hi folks,
I'm here to learn how to best support my lovely daughter in law who lives with BPD, and to have a community of support if/when any issues come up.

Hi Sillyautodidact and welcome
Thanks for posting. It is hard to know how to best respond with very little detail, but I gather you are referring to your DIL and also that you appreciate her very much.

Can you tell us whether your DIL has been diagnosed with BPD? It's just that for many people coming here in relation to a DIL there are often enormous difficulties, but this does not seem to be the case for you.

Can you let us know how long your son has been married and whether there are any children?

It is often the case that families - in particular the mother - of a child who is married to someone with BPD - ends up being cut off from their child. It is so, so sad when this happens.

I am glad things are going well for you at the moment - and hope it continues to do so.
