Re: Anxiety disorders in ACoBPD?

January 27, 2010

Yes there is a way to live much closer to a normal life and you can set

boundaries to insist that she stop what she is doing to you (and you are not

imagining it!!). Yes you can have greater peace when you have unmeshed from

your nada. You remind me of where I have come. I went through all that you are

describing when I unhinged myself from nada's grasp. It was scary and it hasn't

always been easy but I no longer live in fear of her stalking me, interferring

with raising my kids or interferring with my marriage. I can now focus on

becoming healthier. You can do this and it will get better.

> God. I am so frustrated today. The last few days were awesome. Then today came

along and ruined it. LOL. 1st my son was being *very* difficult about going to

school. That set this whole day on the wrong foot and the conflict severely

elevated my anxiety level. I ended up having a panic attack? adreneline surge?

(not sure what to call it) It lasted about 10 minutes. Now all morning I jump

every time the phone rings because I am expecting nada to call to solidify plans

for this weekend (in her dreams. lol *roll eyes*) All of this got me to

thinking....do children raised in a BPD household have much higher rates of

anxiety disorders-EVEN INTO THEIR ADULT LIVES? And what about going 100% NC for

long periods of time, or even after the BPD parent passes away-do we have to

carry this anxiety and panic ALL OF OUR LIVES? Is there anyway to just effing

LIVE a REGULAR LIFE? I had a few days of a normal life. I was happy. Nada was

" in the background " and my children were well behaved and I had no anxiety. I

want that most days, not just once in awhile.
