I'm not "there" yet but wanted to share with everyone that God does not require us to sacrifice our well-being on the altar of biological...

    Newbie needs help with BPD daughter

    Awesome response Kinsey, yes you have been very helpful yes! I, too, can see Jesus loving her (in spite of) as He loves me (in spite of) and that I need to express grace in spite of my massive fear of her and the unpredictability of her behavior. My husband is more detached than me and he is...

    Newbie needs help with BPD daughter

    I am 64, my daughter is 43 and she has not been diagnosed but fits many descriptions of this disorder. I finally got some peace by reading "Stop Walking on Eggshells" which helped explain much of the confusion and pain. She has no idea she is sick, far as I know. We have been estranged for one...
