Guest guest Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 Moody, the best of luck to you. I am glad the herbal remedies have helped you, but I hope you are not opposed to standard therapy if need be for your daughter (s). All people are not the same and hence remedies not the same. I think you should at some point in time be a help to your daughters because of your own condition. Quit beating yourself up over it. It is not like you chose to be BP after all. Keep posting and hanging in there. Janna __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 Hello, Moody and welcome. You'll find a lot of support here, it's a really great group. Your 16 y/o, is she receiving any type of therapy? How is your 14 y/o doing? k newcomer to website I found this website from Edith at BPDcentral. My 16 yr old daughter has been diagnosed bilpolar/schizoaffective BUT having been through the mental health care system myself from ages 22-34 and I was misdiagnosed several times (bipolar, PTST, schozoaffective) I know it was BPD but I never recieved the correct diagnosis due to insurance companies footing the bill. I was diagnosed in 1991 with BPD by a pscychologist and then was refered to a psychiatrist to get medication well he then changed my diagnosis to bipolar, that was just th beginning of my hell. After 11 years of several meds and combination of meds, weight up and down and three suicide attempt, two children and a divorce (yep I lost my girls too) I took control of my life, started reading all the self help books I could and refused meds. I saw a naturapath Dr and found healing through vitamens and alot of meditation. Its alot of work taking care of oneself when you have a mental illness. I just finished reading " I hate you don't leave me " and " Stop walking on eggshells " and I know it was BPD all along. I come from a long line of child molesters and that explains my crazy behavoir. Its been two years of intense therapy and alot of book reading to change my thinking but I'm out of the BPD jungle. However my 16 year old daughter is not and the 14 year old will soon follow. I'm trying to get as strong as I can for the upcoming battle. My girl doesn't want to get better, she cuts herself, she tried suicide and it hurts me deeply, because she learned it from me a long time ago when I was lost. I've joined to get support and learn from other parents, something, anything to help me with my own. Thanks for reading Moody Send questions & concerns to WTOParentsOfBPs-owner .
