interventions for families with BPD?

[Guest guest]

There were many people who knew my nada was a freaking nut. My neighbors

remember her tying me up to the lamp post one night and leaving me in the dark.

(I was 3 and wanted to be a pony-not just BUY a pony, but actually BE one! LOL!)

Nada claims I cried myself to sleep everynight about it. IT drove her so crazy

that she tied something around my waist, led me out to the lamp post in the yard

and left me there til I cried that I wanted to be a little girl.

Other people (school counselors, my dad, step-dad, aunts, uncles, friends,

parents of friends, and even the police) saw what she was like. Yet no one

stopped her.

This brings me to my REAL question-if you saw someone, and you suspected that

he/she had BPD would you seek help for their kids? I know someone who is

OBVIOUSLY BPD, her children are INSANE (seriously they are 12 and 9 and show

signs of dellusional thinking, anxiety disorders, and total loss of reality,

anti-social behaviors, but who can blame them?). Is there anything a regular

person can do? I ALWAYS wanted someone to step in and help me....and now here I

am watching it from afar. It's killing me. (Her husband goes along with it

because he has learned that it's much easier to support her insanity and rage,

than to get the brunt of it and living with her has cost him all of his common

sense).
