Hi Im Beebee
I have a daughter age 46 and a granddaughter age 25 {mother and daughter} who both have Borderline Personality Disorder.  I have only just found out about this group although I have wanted to find one for many years.  I`m not sure how it all works so would be grateful for any information which can help me please.   Thank you.

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

Hello and

So glad you found us. Many members here are in a similar situation, with multiple family members with BPD. It's already a challenge with one person, so two can feel overwhelming.

I have a daughter age 46 and a granddaughter age 25 {mother and daughter} who both have Borderline Personality Disorder. 

It sounds like both of them received an official diagnosis -- is that true? How did they handle getting diagnosed (happy about it/relieved, in denial)?

Do either of them live with you?

I have only just found out about this group although I have wanted to find one for many years.  I`m not sure how it all works so would be grateful for any information which can help me please.   

A great place to start is our section of articles on When a teen or adult child has Borderline Personality Disorder. Take a look there when you have a moment.

Feel free to keep posting here -- both starting and continuing posting threads of your own, and replying in other members' threads. It's a great way to feel like you're not alone in your difficult situation.
