Hello and Welcome.
We are all dealing with the exact same issues you are when it comes to BPD. Such a difficult disorder to get one's head wrapped around. There is lots of information and compassion to be shared here, and we are available for you whenever you need advice or just want to chat. BPD can make a caregiver feel so isolated and frustrated. We all need to vent with others who truly get the hardships of dealing with this disorder.
Please keep in touch and thanks for joining us.

Thank you SO much! I had no idea online websites could be so helpful. You are all doing a great job! Compassion is something that I was really looking for, many people have no clue about this condition and I had no one around who understood it, except of course psychiatrists. It was a relief when I read abt BPD and finally labelled that "erratic" behaviour i saw around me my entire life! Thank you so much!
