There is always hope.
my dd ,now 21, and I were estranged for quite a while, she living on the streets, NC, very bizarre behaviors and emotional reactions. Now she is employed and in school. It took a lot of reading, posting here, learning about BPD and using strong boundaries for us to regain our relationship. Not the one that I had anticipated, but rather one built on some emotional distance, but respect and understanding.
It looks from your profile that your BPD may be an adult relationship. If so you may want to look at that thread as well.

Dear anmolnitu,
I'm so glad you made it here to our Staying Board! Life with a pwBPD can certainly be frustrating for all involved. BUT - they can only make your life miserable if you allow them to. Check out the Lessons on the right------> YOU can make things better! It may not happen overnight, but with continued thought and practice, you really can improve your relationship. Keep reading, posting, and working the Lessons and life will get better for you. If you give us specific situations and conversations that lead up to the problems, we should be able to help you sort it all out. I look forward to hearing more from you.
