Does anyone on here know of or attend any in peCaliforniarson support groups in Northern California? I just feel like it might be beneficial and theraputic to attend if there were any out there.

RELATIONSHIP PROBLEM SOLVING
This is a high level discussion board for solving ongoing, day-to-day relationship conflicts. Members are welcomed to express frustration but must seek constructive solutions to problems. This is not a place for relationship "stay" or "leave" discussions. Please read the specific guidelines for this group.

You'll probably have more luck doing a google search for this. Or perhaps one of the BPD specific websites will have links to point you in the right direction. I think the membership here may be too scattered (geographically) to be of much help locating a particular group.

Good luck!

I believe TARA has a couple of groups in California. They normally have a large parent presence, but all are welcome.

You may also wish to check out NAMI to see if they have any groups. They target mental illness in general and aren't BPD specific, but you will find understanding and acceptance from them.

The National Education Alliance for BPD runs a family support program called 'Family Connections'. I believe you can find local groups via their website:
