My adult child sure seems to fit the DSM for BPD. I’m reading Stop Walking on Eggshells and trying to find a therapist for myself.

Welcome to the group precious life. I am glad to meet you but sorry for the circumstances. Can you say more about why you think your child has BPD?

Hi Preciouslife  Welcome new member (click to insert in post)

I'd like to join Faith in welcoming you to BPD Family.

It's good you've found a therapist for yourself, our own mental health can sure take a beating when a loved one has BPD traits.

As Faith has asked, what are some of the behaviors you find most challenging with your child?

I hope to hear more from you, you are not alone.

Again, Welcome!
