Hi all,

I was just yesterday hit with the likely diagnosis of bpd. My second husband has left our home, and I am left to pick up the pieces of my life while taking care of two kids.

My step daughter's mother has been diagnosed with BPD. She is 11 years old and has already gone through some pretty traumatic things. I don't want to go in depth but she has been the victim of physical abuse, emotional games, emotional abuse etc. Her mom can be very damaging to her at times.

I went to Virginia for a week to visit my darling girlfriend lame crusader. I was supposed to work from the hotel while I was gone, but my boss isn't mad so go me! I spent pretty much every minute of my time with her, though she did have to work twice and go to class once. It was the best week of my life, and that includes living in Japan.

I'm not just here ...
