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.

I couldn't wait to be able to say this...

Today I was walking along the canal and realized that I don't think of my exUBPDbf as much as I used to.  I said to myself "finally"!   

This thought was worth a post.

Hi Tsultan, and congrats on reaching this point 

I remember when my wedding anniversary came this past year, and I didn't even realize what day it was for three whole hours after I woke up  That was worth a post to me because it felt huge.

It's definitely a confidence-booster when you realize that there actually is some progress being made! I hope it gets even better for you from here

Great news, Tsultan!  Keep up the good work.  I'm here to confirm that it's possible to find greater happiness in the aftermath of a BPD r/s.  That's what it's all about, right?

Lucky Jim, Yes! Greater happiness - I like that. That is what it's all about.  And I have it finally again. 

I'm doing okay.  Starting to feel good again.

Thanks for responding.
