My physician, after listening to what I was experiencing at home, diagnosed I was dealing with a BPD spouse and has set up an appointment with a PA that specializes in the BPD disorder. He also gave me a few pointers on how to cope until my appointment.

Hi Beat,
That must of been difficult to hear that your spouse could potentially have BPD. It sounds like you have a good physician for spotting and to give you coping skills. I know that you’ve probably been through a lot it helps to talk to others that are in similar situations like you.

Welcome, and I feel for you.
you've come to the right place though.
but brace yourself... .just learning & reading about BPD can be emotionally draining.
