I hear you saying that you two would not be able to hire much outside help. Off hand, I would suggest you try to do the minimum you can live with and just let some things go for awhile.  And just tell her that you are doing the best you can, and it doesn't help for her to criticize you, especially if she isn't living up to her bargain......(Alas, depressed people can be very crabby, too. I know from experience.)

She was seeing a therapist along with her pdoc but stopped seeing both pretty much and just take meds. I think treating a mental health illness requires more than meds, but I wouldn't know much about her because BPD is such a different beast.
