Welcome Misguided:
Good to have you join the family. I have a sister who is not diagnosed, but appears to be a high-functioning BPD.
This is a safe place to share. When you are ready to share more of your story, we are here to listen. In the meantime, check out some of the links in the right margin and withing the large green band at the very top of the page.

Hi misguided
I have an older undiagnosed BPD sister. Like many members I have found it rather difficult dealing with my BPD family-members, especially during the years before I found out about BPD.
BPD is quite a complex disorder and dealing with a BPD family-member can often be very challenging. Are there perhaps any specific issues you would like to get advice on?
We are here to support you. Take care and welcome to bpdfamily

Hello Misguided
Welcome ! You will find a lot of people here who just understand what you mean, because they are in a similar situation.
I have a BPD grandma and mum. My sister shows some traits too.
Can you tell us, do you have a close relationship with your sister ?
What are some of the things she does that most disturb you ?
Take care,
Fie
