First time

Hello:

I have a husband and two children - Son is 24 yrs and Daughter is 20 yrs. My Daughter was diagnosed at 15 with Mood Disorder NOS and Anxiety Disorder.  She has wonderful support in her Psychiatrist and recently has a new therapist of 1-1/2 months, after changing from her original therapist whom she saw since 15 years of age.  Though out our daughter's life, we have been aware that she has BPD traits.  I look forward to joining in the conversation.

Our objective is to better understand the struggles our child faces and to learn the skills to improve our relationship and provide a supportive environment and also improve on our own emotional responses, attitudes and effectiveness as a family leaders
