I had memories of my birth mom (all the memories is about the abuse she inflicted on me) and siblings. My birth mom's death was very hard on me, it came almost exactly 6 months after my mom's death. That was the start of my latest bout of deep depression.

In your situation with having your birth family be supportive of you I would probably tell. My parents are deceased but my siblings know of my diagnosis, not sure if they know what BPD is.
Thank you. I think I will talk with my bio sis and mom first. Gonna think about how I wanna tell them and probably do it after the first of the year. My nephews ex(who he is back together with) is bipolar and they are understanding and supportive of her. Think I will print some things out so they can read through the stuff when I tell them.
Don't think I will tell my adoptive family though. Not sure they will understand and I am worried if I tell them they will tell other people.
