I am a person with BPD and I have a daughter with BPD and I don't know how to help her see it.
Ten years ago I was going through a divorce and could not see that I was the person with the problem. I had dinner with my daughter one evening and she got furious and acted out, slamming her fist on her kitchen counter and then grabbing me by the collar of my sweater. That was the moment when I woke up and saw what I was doing and what it was doing to her. I had a great therapist who worked with me and told me about a meditation and mindfulness group. I went there to try to deal with my anger and what had clearly emerged as BPD. Over these ten years, I have improved and now my daughter is where I was, acting out and blaming everyone else. She has not worked in almost that entire time and she has now divorced three times. I know she is suffering and I want to help her awake and I don't have a clue what to do or what to avoid doing. Can someone help me?
