All that is good about being a child of a BPD

[HappyChappy]

ProudDad12 We are good in a crisis, infact I note my BPD is also.
pursuingJoy We are good at validating , you’re right.
zachira Compassion for others seems a common trait. Maybe that’s why we do so well for moderators on here ?
Methuen the Police have been asking after you, they need a human lie detector.
TelHill you’re talking like a superhero
It's not all bad and we're quite a skillful tribe. I recon Sherlock Holmes had a BPD upbringing, due to his hypervigilance.

[Help for daugher]

I’ve become independent and resourceful. I am caring. I enjoy helping others (not my mom ) when I know it helps. I love to laugh, because that’s how I have survived. I Have a lot of empathy for others. Those are the good things.

My mother wants every one around her to do all kinds of tasks for her. Between 3 daughters, we have been exhausted by her constant needs. It has been a bottomless pit for as long as I can remember. I guess this is why I am independent. I could not stand her helplessness.
