Guest guest Posted May 28, 2005 Report Share Posted May 28, 2005 I like LaNells idea of gathering information. I feel like this is what I have been doing. Our problems with Anika hit like a freight train Jan 8th 2004. The first 8 months were awful. I felt like I was in a fog and was wracked with grief and guilt. The best thing that happened is that I started to gather information on BPD and read great books such as SWOE. This website has been invaluble. I have learned from others experiences and insights. You guys are wonderful!!! I now feel that with God's help and steadfastness, even if my daughter is not OK, I am OK and the rest of my family is OK. Knowlege and insight into the problem is a valuble thing. I have come to realize that the problems my daughter is having are not my fault. I am a good mother, not perfect, but good and that is enough. Anika will be 15 in June. She is young and so I hope and pray that she will become a happy, functional adult. For now I am focusing on the things in my life that are going well. (good health, a solid marriage, 4 other kids etc) That is enough. cindy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
