Before you can make things better, you have to stop making them worse... Have you considered that being critical, judgmental, or invalidating toward the other parent, no matter what she or he just did will only make matters worse? Someone has to be do something. This means finding the motivation to stop making things worse, learning how to interrupt your own negative responses, body language, facial expressions, voice tone, and learning how to inhibit your urges to do things that you later realize are contributing to the tensions.

Hello everyone

I had something pop into my head last night, I watched an episode of Star Trek the NG years ago, Skin of Evil.

It broke my heart watching it again last night, if anyone has the chance to watch this episode let me know if you get my meaning.

Thank you

Hey JerryRG

Scrounging vintage Star Trek? Smiling (click to insert in post)

I can see how it might break your heart. At the same time I can also see how a response would be simple sadness. The blob did kill one of Picard's crew, bullied another crew member, and tried to cause Data to panic from the threat of killing other crew members "by his hand". Not sure if I guessed the right place as to where your response was coming from though. I guessed it was a combination of the blob, abandonment, and the blob's version of BPD's black hole of emptiness.

That's it gotbushels

BPD is a horrible mental illness and I feel so sorry for those affected by it. Seems to be and emptiness that's never filled and that loneliness leads to such anger and bitterness they cannot contain and unleash their pain on loved ones, trusted ones.

I could see it, I can understand it but I won't allow another person's problems destroy my life, that is NOT my responsibility.

I offered my exgf DBT, counceling, spiritually, my love, patients, kindness, AA, Alanon, NA, and she made a choice to refuse to get well.

Haha that's an impressive array JerryRG. I heard DBT can stretch in the thousands easy.

I admire your sympathies. I feel a little guilty that I'm quicker to relate to Riker getting dragged in and later bombing the shuttle.
