Looking for support for my daughter whose sister has BPD

I am new to the site and have started hanging out in the parent section. My almost 24yo adopted daughter has BPD, and recently cut off all ties from us - again. Her almost 20yo sister (also my adopted daughter) has been living in the shadows of both of her siblings' mental health issues all of her life. Today I told her about this site. I was looking for some sibling support but didn't see a lot. I'm hoping for some response here to encourage her to have a safe place to share and to see that she is not alone in her experiences. Thanks!

Hi and welcome!
We do have several members who post about a sibling with BPD or BPD traits so if your daughter wants to read or post we can give her support and she will find members who can related to having a sibling with the disorder. Those of us who have other family members with BPD can also relate at least to the emotions so she will be covered either way.
