Title: Re: Feeling helpless watching BPD loved one spiral out of control Post by: Lady Itone on March 26, 2018, 07:07:17 PM I hear that. I gave my gf so much energy, I tried so hard. She still ended up self-harming, in psyche ward many times, and currently is in a group home for mentally ill/ recovering addicts.
Want to throw out some details? Sometimes helps to just lay it down and look at it... . Title: Re: Feeling helpless watching BPD loved one spiral out of control Post by: Mutt on March 26, 2018, 08:42:12 PM Hi RayTime34,
I’m sorry to hear that. As you can see members here can relate with you. Lady Itone asked a good question. What’s the back story? Title: Re: Feeling helpless watching BPD loved one spiral out of control Post by: Speck on March 26, 2018, 08:43:20 PM Welcome, RayTime23!

I'm sorry for that and glad you have found a place which can help you gain the answers that you seek. In what ways do you think can we help you? What behaviors is your significant other displaying that is causing you the most trouble? When you are ready, feel free to give us some sort of backstory, so that we can understand your situation better.
