Title: Touching base again
Post by: ScotsAbbey on August 11, 2021, 05:29:16 PM
Struggling this week.  Grown daughter, BP, NPD, projecting on me.  So painful to hear her many rejections.

Hi ScotsAbbey  :hi:

Sorry you had to find us but really glad you did. I see that you last posted in 2020 and came back this week. I'm glad you are reaching out for support, none of us can do this alone.

Can you share a bit more of what's going on? It helps to get to know someone and knowing what behaviors you are seeing/dealing with from your BPD child helps us know the best way to support you.

Sadness is a familiar feeling for many of us and sometimes it can get overwhelming. Do you have support from friends, family, a therapist?

I hope to hear more from you - for some reason, your posts hit me hard as I have been absent from these pages for a long time and, in my current grief I am realizing how much the amazing people here helped me.

This last couple of weeks have been a struggle here too. Some days I can let all the abuse and putdowns go right past me. Other days they knock me for six.

I come here on those days and just read others' posts. It helps knowing I am not alone. Otherwise living with someone with bpd can be the loneliest road!

Be kind to yourself whenever you can . . .
