Guest guest Posted October 27, 2010 Report Share Posted October 27, 2010 I was just talking to a coworker of mine who was almost in tears because of the very difficult relationship she has with her sister. This coworker told me a few episodes of a long series that has poisoned all her life. There was no doubt in my mind that she was describing a seriously BPD person (rages,accusations, attemped suicides, anger, and manipulation). I comforted her and sent her a few info and links on BPD. The day after she hugged me and said that the info helped her tremendously and that she finally found a label and a name for her very abusive sis' behaviour. This coworker, at age 57 - finally had her 'lightbulb' moment. Then, today, with a large group of coworkers we were commenting about a collegue who nobody could work with because he was famous for his 'rages' triggered by just 'the wrong word' from a collegue, from a secretary, or the 'wrong situation'. This lets me wonder: How many BPD are out there? It's incredible the sheer number of people that have the illness. It seems to me that the numbers are staggering. Are there any known percentages?
