Hi and welcome to bpdfamily
Dealing with a BPD parent can be quite challenging. I am glad you are reaching out for support and advice to help you in your interactions with your mother.
Could you tell us a bit more about what you are dealing with? What kind of behaviors does your mother exhibit that you find particularly difficult to handle?

Hello Ibis,
We have many communication tools which can help, but it might help us if you tell us what specifically you're struggling with. What's going on?
