Guest guest Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 I'm new here. I'm a 42 year old guy with an undiagnosed and highly toxic BPD mom. I moved out of state years ago because it was too much for me to be near her. Being in her vicinity ruins me. I've tried to keep a cordial long distance relationship. Last year I had to suspend contact because she was doing so much to sabotage my wedding that I eventually ended up having to uninvite her. She tried to talk people into not attending my wedding and she still doesn't talk to relatives who came. A few months ago I resumed talking to her, but it all fell apart again around Mother's Day last month. Holidays and vacations always seem to trigger her craziness. Now I am back to suspending contact for a while because I just need a rest from the roller coaster. The other day when thinking about it got me really down, I decided to start writing down some of the more toxic episodes over the years. Writing calms me. It actually makes me cry at the time, but when I am done it calms me. And it helps me achieve clarity. Anyway, I've attached one of the stories in case anyone is interested. It seems like lots of you have been through similar experiences. I'm glad to be here with people who have lived through the same types of toxicity that I've experienced.

Guest guest Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 Ed, Welcome. I don't see your attachment. I am thinking maybe this group does not accept attachments. Maybe you need to cut and paste directly into the email. --. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
