Part of the testing included feedback from my family. What my mother and brother said, what my husband said, what my testing showed, it was all actually pretty consistent, my psychologist told me. Except that my mother and brother are in denial about any abuse happening that could possibly have left me damaged. Big surprise there. (Not.)

I'm glad you got support and feedback from your family. That's something I won't ever get. My immediate family always told me I was okay and it was all my imagination and my husband tells me that I'm playing games when I'm having major issues and refuses to read material on BPD when it's placed right in front of him. All I can work with is me...can't trust anyone else in my family to do anything. It used to bother me greatly, but I frankly don't care anymore. Screw 'em.
