meltdowns

[carebear59]

Single Mom here.  Raised 4 daughters myself and my youngest is 27 with I think BPD, she just started therapy although she has been in and out of therapy for years.  This problem started when she was 2.  I am 61 now and so very familiar with the outbursts/meltdowns.  They are getting worse and I am getting angrier when she attacks me physically and emotionally, what can I do?  Usually I have the patience of Job but these bouts are getting worse and after 27 years I am tired and depressed dealing with every dang trauma that comes down the pike. Tortured soul here every single day.

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

I'm glad you found us.  We "get it".

Does your D still live with you?

Have you done any therapy to help with the situation?

Does your D seem to do better while she is in therapy?

What have you done in the past when you have been attacked?  I'm concerned when I see "physical" attack.  What is that like?

I'll check back soon to see your answer and I believe we can help you!

Best,
