Hello  Welcome new member (click to insert in post) and welcome
I am not on here often like never Laugh out loud (click to insert in post)
I have been married 22 years to my husband who has BPD
We are still doing fine but this covid thing doesn’t help.
There is a lot of books to read and articles on here . You came to a good place it’s where I started like 20 some years ago . My husband is high functioning . And I had to learn to accept what I could . And set many boundaries . That is a good place to start read all u can about BPD  . Also on. Top read the success stories I’m in there .

What are you struggling with if you don’t mind me asking. A significant other can give a lot of support and help but it’s important that your partner be willing to accept it/admit it and improve the situation. That doesn’t always mean it will be successful but it’s a HUGE step in the right direction. A lot of people are able to work through BPD. There is life on the other side of it.  Way to go! (click to insert in post) I’m newish here too. Been a member before but coming back to brush up on things I guess. There’s so much good stuff here. You made the right call!
