Guest guest Posted November 25, 2010 Report Share Posted November 25, 2010 Im not sure what to say or share, but I know I need some help. Ive been through a lot and I tend to keep it to myself. I have some agoraphobic tendencies that ive found tools to deal with that so im not completely trapped. I have some BP traits from what ive been told and I can see them now that they have been brought to my attention. I was told that this forum can be a positive place and I think I need that. Im tired of these feelings that keep me prisoner. I know they are wrong and I want to grow. Sorry if this isnt the right place or format but im just learning. Ill talk more later.

Guest guest Posted November 27, 2010 Report Share Posted November 27, 2010 Hi Anthem, Welcome to the Group. We're all at different stages of healing from having been raised by a parent or parents with personality disorder, and figuring out how to have as healthy and functional a life as possible. Some of us still have our bpd parent(s) in our life, and are in low contact, some of us have chosen to have no contact. It really does help to realize that you've found other KOs (adult Kids Of bpd parents) who have had really similar experiences to your own, and its amazing how similar some of our bpd parents' behaviors are to each other. It might help you to read through some earlier threads and discussions that seem relevant to your own issues. There are also many helpful books about borderline pd. I recommend " Understanding The Borderline Mother " as highly educational on the subject. " Boundaries " is good, and " Surviving a Borderline Parent " . Please feel free to share as much or as little as you feel comfortable with, at your own pace. -Annie > > Im not sure what to say or share, but I know I need some help.
