Been with my husband for 20 years and 2 kids just realizing he has BPD

[florence]

I have never done this before but I need some support.  I've been with my husband for a long time we have kids.  I found the book walking on eggshells and realized that's me I always say I feel like I'm walking on eggshells on a roller coaster.  My husband comes from a war torn country I always thought he might have some form of PTSD.  Lately I've had so many putdowns I don't like myself anymore.  I put up a wall years ago now I would like to break it down. Anyone in a similar situation?

Yes... .I am in a similar situation. 

I found out about BPD and that book you mentioned "WOE"... .about a year ago.  I'm at 20 years in my marriage.

Learning about BPD traits and tools on this site has been a big part of changing my life and my r/s (relationship) for the better.

I'll also say that PTSD can sometimes present with BPD like symptions... .and vice versa.
