Guest guest Posted July 13, 2004 Report Share Posted July 13, 2004 Last week, after hanging up the phone on my raging BP mother, I went to and Noble looking for answers to explain why this person, whom I love so much, makes me so crazy. My fiance showed me a book about children of parents w/BPD and, wow, I nearly wept w/relief. I see now that we are classic BP/non-BP duo. I have made steps to help myself, writing my mother a clear, and I think, a fair email message explaining how/why her rages hurt me and how they push me away (vetted by my very clear-headed partner). I have no regrets about doing this (I am 35; this is a long time coming). But I haven't heard from her since I sent the note (3 days) and I'm starting to feel depressed and sad and guilty. What makes matters worse is that I am getting married in three weeks and, of course, I would like to be close to my mother at this exciting time. I guess I'm seeking some affirmation from the experts... Thanks, Liz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
