Hello all!    I'm new here, but not to trying to live with this disorder controlling my life.  My 23 year old daughter has BPD.  Whether she is officially diagnosed or not doesn't matter.  I have been saying it since she was 15.  Nobody listened then.  And so we have struggled through so much hurt and pain without the correct support and tools in place.  I'm angry at the mental health system for not educating us better sooner. 

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
