My sister moved in with me unexpectedly a few months ago. We have since learned she has BPD and bipolar. I honestly feel as though I am suffocating in my own home sometimes. I'm looking for support.

Hello Tandm,

Welcome

What's going on in your home, and what sorts of behaviors are you struggling the most with? Self-harm on her part, or fits of anger? Physicality?

Who else lives there, and how is the house dynamic? I hope to hear more and how best we can support you.

Check out this to start:

Tandm, Bipolar and BPD share a number of symptoms and are often initially confussed. What leads you to feel suffocated ? We're here to support, but let us know what's on your mind.
