How do I get my mother commited to get help? She is in denial that she does not see it and it is everyone else that is "crazy" not her. I'm 28 and so tired of being abused and put down. I feel as though my feelings will be forever hurt and I have so many resentments towards her. I know it's not her fault but god she can do such damage!

Hi Cewinters9,
I want to join Turkish on welcoming you to the family. Both he and I as well as many others here completely understand how difficult it is to have a mother that has traits of BPD. Like Turkish said, if you share your full story, we can better give some advice given what circumstances and particular issues you may be encountering.
If you'll take a look to the right of this page in the margin, you'll see some lessons and a guide... .both of which can be helpful for you in your journey. Also note at the top of the page the tools drop down, it's loaded with good information on centering yourself and communication and boundary techniques and thoughts which are front and center in your ability to improve the situation from your side. We look forward to hearing you share more. You've found the right place.
