Title: New here, kid just diagnosed Post by: TiredButTrue on June 19, 2019, 07:49:14 PM Trying to learn how I can help my BPD kid and my ASD kid. And myself, grandma etc. Been through and still in hell. Surreal sometimes.

I join Swimmy in welcoming you here. The best way to help others is to help yourself first, lead the way for your family. Are you a grandma or are you wanting to help your grandma (or your mom?) Surreal is a great description of how these relationships feel sometimes. I look forward to getting to know you. As Swimmy says, having more information (as you feel comfortable sharing it) helps us help you *welcome* ~ OH Title: Re: New here, kid just diagnosed Post by: MomSA on June 21, 2019, 09:40:07 AM Trying to learn how I can help my BPD kid and my ASD kid. And myself, grandma etc. Been through and still in hell. Surreal sometimes. Welcome. I so understand you! I have 4 ASDs (husband and 3 kids) in various places on the spectrum and my husband and 1 child BPD. So very very hard to keep juggling all the balls... Let us know how you are doing?

It's TiredButTrue and think speaks to your dedication to figuring out a way forward, despite how exhausting it all is. Love it.
Hope to see you back here soon, we want to help ~ OH |
