There's other reasons he's brought it up too but honestly he doesn't know her well enough to make a diagnosis. That said... This is his way of helping. He's not good at other ways so for him to "figure it out" is how he does it.

I know but he's just trying to help.

My brother is pushing the whole "she's bpd as they come" thing so I was just doing some research. I don't think she is but honestly...I don't care what she is. I just want her healthy. I just want to know how to care for her the best. Thank you for the replies.

Thank you. I'm not trying to diagnose per se, just trying to see if her symptoms come close out of curiosity.

And I found this article. Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) - HelpGuide.org My brother thinks my daughter is borderline ( he's a psychiatric nurse practitioner) so I was looking into information. This is an article I have found. Is it accurate?

I don't really know

Thank you all

This is her fourth one.

I don't have anything else. I don't know if I feel anything to be honest. I just can't.

My daughter tried to take her life last night. She is home now and will be in intensive outpatient therapy. She is also going to leave her husband who apparently has been treating her like crap. Its a long story how I found out what she did but she took a bottle of antidepressants, I and her...

I don't do all that lol I cut the avocado in half, scoop it in. I tear pieces of kale off, throw it in. It takes me maybe five minutes to do the whole thing. It looks worse than it is. But I hear you. For me eating like this is a habit. Even with low energy I have no choice but to eat or I get...

What about frozen berries? They have very little in the way of sugar and great in a smoothie/ shake. I make smoothies alot. Almond milk ( unsweetened), kale, mixed berries, sometimes peanut butter or avocado ( sometimes both) , yogurt ( also unsweetened) and Stevia to taste. I like it It...

Ok I just read your intro again and I 100% understand why you are so reluctant. Your life with the woman you grew up with (Mom) was a pattern of abuse then solitude. Abuse then solitude. The solitude I would guess was much easier, right? You have to get into therapy to untangle the web that...

My brother has severe adhd so I know how frustrating that is. As far as the BPD diagnosis, if you're concerned I suggest getting a formal diagnosis instead of a drive by by a therapist that doesn't specialize in trauma therapy.

You said you've never been diagnosed...what makes you think anything you're feeling has anything to with bpd? Maybe you just want to feel like you matter? I think that's pretty human isn't it?

I agree with that. Children need parents that learn to navigate the waters. However, abuse is abuse whether the name called is slut or not. Whether addiction is involved or not and whether it's physical or not. Et Al.

Woah hold on....are you telling her because she isn't experiencing what you deem as "bad enough" she has no reason to leave? Or am I misinterpreting?

Sorry to tell you sweetie but people lie and hide things all the time. There is no true way of knowing if anybody is "safe". It's a crap shoot. I wish it wasn't but it is.

This site is the only support I have. My "new" family is way too new to even try to understand but they try. My "old" family doesn't care. No friends. My coworkers just let me be. My husband tries but just flat out isn't capable. So..... Yeah. I do. Especially when family members support each...

I'm sorry. My brain is mush right now. :)

Your doctor can't give anybody your medical information without your consent. Tell your doctor's office your employer does not have consent so they can't do it anymore.

I wouldn't take on any projects ( gardening) until you get your nutrition ( fuel, medicine) sorted out. You need the energy to be able to tackle all this. You can't do it if you've expended it all in the yard :)

You're welcome

Can you share the app? I'm the same way with down time and meds so I understand completely.
