Thanks for all the welcomes. I have a 37 year old borderline daughter, her 6 year old son who is not borderline thankfully and her 16 year old daughter who is borderline. My husband and I have been married for 38 years and do not have any of the borderline traits so this disease is hard to deal with. The reading of recommended literature helps and connecting on these boards. I am trying to learn better how to deal with the rages and deeply hurt feelings and unwarrented accucations. I am not a perfect person by far but don't think I am terrible either. Everyone in this family has been affected by the constant turmoil. I crave peace.

I am so glad you have found this website, Skye1947! Welcome.
Sometimes "peace" is just knowing there are others out there who are experiencing the same/similar difficulties. Just putting words to paper (computer) can help... .and even better when you are validated... .and you will find validation here.
