Adult Child With BPD, Need Support With Co-dependency

[Phoenix500]

I’m new here. I just found out about the site. I have an adult child with BPD who I am trying to stop being a co-dependent with. I need support and ideas of how to do this lovingly.

Our objective is to better understand the struggles our child faces and to learn the skills to improve our relationship and provide a supportive environment and also improve on our own emotional responses, attitudes and effectiveness as a family leaders

A lot of parents struggle similarly,  so welcome 

How do you judge yourself codependent with her?

[Harri]

Hi Phoenix and welcome to the site!  I am glad you found us though sorry for the circumstances that brought you here.  As Turkish said, many of our parents and others members struggle with co-dependency. 

I hope you feel comfortable to read and post in other threads and also check out the articles listed over on the right side of the page.  We have Lessons and Tools which can help you greatly in your goal.

Take care.

You are very wise in recognising that you could be in a codependent relationship with your BPD adult child. Here is a link about codependency, just click on it and it will take you to the article:
