This sounds terribly painful! Has she had therapy or does she now see a therapist to help her? How are you coping? How do you manage with the mood swings? How often are they happening? Do you notice what triggers them? take care, pearlsw. Title: Re: living with a wife that has BPD Post by: Radcliff on December 19, 2017, 12:21:10 AM Hello LivingLife,
