Title: new to group
Post by: motherrucker on April 24, 2017, 12:06:12 PM
Hi, I'm new to this group.  I feel tremendous guilt about not reaching out to my aging BPD mother so I thought I'd get a sense of how others have gotten thru the pain.  I have gone no contact for a year now as a way to take care of myself and my family.  I feel better.  My husband and kids understand why I have pulled away.  We all get along better lately. Every once in a while I think I should call and offer to help get her around to appointments and such.  This time I thought about how she would wail my name and I was triggered into a mess of nerves.  I'm so torn.

I'm kind of in a similar situation... .guilt and all.

What led up to you going no contact?
