Hi

[Depression = 72% of members]

Hi! I am a new member. My husband of 17 years has been diagnosed with BPD. We have been on a long journey together and I am seeking resources in which will help me as well as him cope and improve our relationship issues in which are caused by BPD. He is high functioning and is very self aware and in tune with how he feels and why most of the time. I am the only one he trust to talk to and share his thoughts and emotions with. I am glad that he has let me in to his world but it is a scary place at times . Sometimes, I do not want to be too involved because it hurts when trust is broken and he rages on me and his border"lion" comes out. Me and that guy do not like one another! I have many questions and am excited to talk with others who have first hand experience loving someone with BPD.
