Title: New here. Post by: Listens to birds on April 03, 2017, 11:40:54 AM I'm not sure where to start. I was raised in a house of abuse. I was diagnosed with PTSD 2 years ago, and have been in therapy since. I am currently reading Stop walking on Eggshells and using the attached workbook. I am realizing that not only my abuser, (my step father, my sisters biological dad ) Mother and my sister are borderline. I have cut my parents out of my life, I am still trying to figure out my relationship with my sister. She creates so much chaos then disappears for a couple of weeks. She's just done this, and I'm trying to figure out how to deal with this round of antics.
I am feeling very overwhelmed and a little lost. Title: Re: New here. Post by: Mutt on April 03, 2017, 06:31:43 PM Hi Listens to birds,
*welcome* I'm sorry that you're going this, when someone doesn't respect our boundaries, we can set more boundaries and we can self protect with minimal or no contact which is what it sounds like you've done with your parents. It helps to talk to others that can relate with you, we can help guide you with our perspective on your situation and offer you support. A pwBPD have have very chaotic interpersonal r/s's, I know it all to we'll, what type of chaos is she causing, what's going on? Title: Re: New here. Post by: Listens to birds on April 03, 2017, 09:02:05 PM Thanks for replying, I'm so new to this community that I'm not sure of some of your lingo. R/s's, and a pwBPD.
I'm learning about setting boundaries, as none were ever set in my house when I was young. Title: Re: New here. Post by: Mutt on April 03, 2017, 09:22:27 PM You're right, i've been doing this for a while and we do have our own lingo You can find the abbreviations under the glossary tab at the top, here's the link to it. https://bpdfamily.com/message_board/index.php?topic=26601.0 r/s's is short for relationships and a pwBPD is a person with BPD.
