Guest guest Posted January 18, 2005 Report Share Posted January 18, 2005 Hi Carolyn Just wanted to say hi, there are a few of us that are vaguely 'youngsters' on this list, together with some older and much wiser people than myself, we all seem to experience the same unfortunate things living with someone with BPD but everyone is so so helpful and am sure you'll find it really reassuring and well as a relief to find people here going through the same weird stuff as you. I myself am 25 and have a mum (nada) with BPD and have been aware of it since i was about 18/19 so i really understand how scary it is for you right now, my nada too has made serious suicide attempts, which totally freaked me out as they were dramatic to say the least, so i honestly do know what you're going through, it's really pretty horrid to know that your own mother no longer wants to be here but don't worry, post here as much or as little as you want, and be strong and we'll all help you through it.

However, I wanted to let you know that posting on this list will be very helpful to you in learning about BPD, learning how it affects the children of a parent with BPD, and then learning how you can heal from those affects. It is a tragic disorder that not only affects the person with it, but it greatly affects the other people in the family as well. We are all here because we realize how our BPD parent has detrimentally affected us, and we are supporting each other as we work through our problems.

Are there any other young adults out there looking for support?
