Hello

[Bpdx2]

I have a 17 year old son diagnosed with BPD. I have not been diagnosed with it, but I'm sure I have it as well.  I am trying to help him while trying to learn and manage my own distinction.  I also have a 16 year old in the house that is more resilant but it's definitely taking its toll on him.

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

Hi BPDx2

Welcome to the family.

Im sorry you have so much to deal with at the moment.

There are many lessons here. The ones on parenting a child with BPD might be of some help to you.

It can be a very confusing time and you can feel very isolated this site can be a welcome refuge where you can find people who understand and have dealt with and are dealing with similar situations to you.

Hi BPDx2,

Glad you are here!

Have you had time to look at the Tools and Lessons?  Any thoughts on how affective they may be for you and your relationship with your son?


I look forward to hearing back from you.
