Welcome Tony and welcome to all the other new members too

[Guest guest]

Welcome to the Group Tony. This is a good group to share with; we all have

similar experiences with our borderline pd (and/or other Cluster B pd) parents.

It seems to be pretty common for those with borderline pd (and/or narcissistic

pd, or other Cluster B pds) to marry an enabling, enmeshed spouse. Seems that

most of us here (for whatever reason) have bpd moms, and " dishrag " dads. My dad

was like that. He just put up with my mother's extreme moodiness, her screaming

and yelling and other verbal abuse, and he didn't intervene or establish rules

for her regarding how she treated us kids. Then again, dad was never home when

" nada " (my bpd/npd mom; short for " not a mom " ) would go really ballistic and

terrorize my little Sister and me with her screaming rages and physical abuse;

he didn't know of the worst things she did to us. When he was home, she was

either more emotionally stable or she'd focus her irritation, criticism or rage

at him.

So, welcome. You've found a bunch of other people who can understand what your

childhood was like, and can relate to what you are going through now.

Also: Its recommended for posters here to be anonymous; its for your own safety.

Welcome, I hope you will find much validation, peace and healing here. I sure

have.

> Hi everyone. This is my first time on this sight. I finally talked my mom

into getting help for her depression and suicidal thoughts. The drs decided she

needed to stay and be admitted. They kept her for 6 days decided she had BPD. I

can relate so much to u guys. I always wanted my moms approval and never got it,

in her eyes I do nothing right and everything's is my fault and we r all against

her. She Is driving my two sisters and dad away from her. My dad bends over

backwards for her and gets no appreciation for all he does for her. Every time I

talk to my mom she yells and talks negative about me and everyone else,but

nothing is ever her fault . I am a grown woman with two kids of my own. I just

want the love that most mothers give their kids.
