Title: BPD Disruption at Home and Need to Prepare Post by: Dadswork on January 06, 2022, 05:08:39 PM Hello, My wife has BPD and NPD. I have been dealing with it the best I can for 21 years. She has rages and other abusive behaviors. We :help: have been on the roller coaster too long. I need legal advice for options as a safety net for when it will get out of control the next time. I need to have some plans for myself, my adult daughter, and mother in law to understand our rights and what the process will be. We live in Harris County, Houston, Texas. Take care, Dadswork

Various paths are appropriate, depending on her actions. Has she ever been inpatient due to an episode? Have the police ever been called? Is anyone in the family in therapy? Is your wife in therapy or on medication?

Your want out (divorce) or something else? Title: Re: BPD Disruption at Home and Need to Prepare Post by: kells76 on January 08, 2022, 06:07:49 PM Hey Dadswork, I saw your other thread on the "Tools" board and replied to it there. I'll post that link for you:
