you could be my daughter in law, she could have written the exact same story, she gave up finally last fall, after never really understanding the illness, I could not really blame her, the children went thru Hell, my son died this past July, I can hardly breathe, for 20 years I tried to help him, get him help, be there in this illness, all the doctors said he was a grown man, had to do it on his own, I could write a book, the 20 year travels of a borderline mom, never give up, read and read and read and read some more, a wife can help, a mom can not.........

You almost made me cry, except I am at the library. My adult daughter (27) who I believe has BPD Has had her 2 children taken by the state. My heart is broken, I have begged, pleaded, demanded her to do all the things she needs to do to get them back. She is a drug addict currently on a low dose of Methadone. The judge wants her off of it. Every time she goes off of it she returns to using illlegal drugs. She sleeps all day, gets nothing done, is sick all the time, acts as if she worked all day if she just makes two phone calls. She is supposed to be in counseling, she went one time and never makes another appt. I am so sorry about your son, it is every Mom's biggest fear.

My daughter is 29 has 2 children that live with my husband and me. She is not treating her borderline per dis. I can't take it much longer. She treats us all terrible

how do I convience her she needs help? I am looking to talk to someone professionally that has knowledge of the disease

so similar to my daughter
