Title: tired of arguing and tired of giving in Post by: mamorama88 on February 18, 2019, 07:42:04 PM I don't know what the balance is between keeping the peace and feeling comfortable in my own home! My 82-year-old mother had to move in with me because she was asked to leave two facilities within 6 months. Now she and her BPD have taken over my house. If we don't let her have her way 100% of the time its a knock down drag out fight. I work from home so there is no place for me to run.

What was going on that she was asked to leave the facilities? Does anyone else live with you? I hope to hear more from you. in the meantime, feel free to jump in and post and read. We all help each other here. Title: Re: tired of arguing and tired of giving in Post by: GaGrl on February 18, 2019, 09:13:41 PM I'm so sorry that you find yourself in this situation. I recently retired and moved into our retirement house, where my 92-year-old mother has been living for three years. She does not have a PD, but there are residual PD traits from having grown up with an uBPD/BPD parent. So we might be navigating similar waters here. My mom does not rage - she pouts, and it blows over in 24 hours.
What options do you have for caregiving? |
