Title: Difficult relationship Post by: John Purton on September 20, 2020, 06:54:16 AM Hi,
I'm living with my partner who has said she has BPD (when drunk), but will not admit this when sober. She had a difficult and neglectful childhood and displays many symptoms of BPD. She is suspicious of my ex-partner and creating row after row, which is destroying the relationship. No amount of reassurance works. What can I do?

You sound as if you are in a relatively balanced place right now - in the sense that you have some perspective on where you find yourself. Have you read / listened to the book "Stop Walking on Eggshells"? You can find it for free on YouTube and it takes about 8 hours to listen to it. It is an excellent resource because it maps out a lot of general information in a non-judgmental way. Beyond that, could you say a little bit more about your relationship? How did you meet? How long have you been together? Kids? Co-habitating? Those kinds of details. Rev |
