Can I have more details? Can you identify certain triggers and why they're upsetting you?
How is he acting towards you?
I will say this, it's really cool that your heart is in the right place and that you care about your bf and the child, but this is not your problem. You can't solve it. They have to. If you're being supportive of your man and helping him through his emotions, you're doing the best you can. That is the reality of the situation. We, no matter how hard we want to, cannot solve our partner's problems. We can only support them.
I often get scared when old emotions resurface. It makes me feel like I haven't progressed. However, remember that recovery from BPD does not mean that we won't ever have problems or negative emotions. It means that we learn how to manage them better. Coming here was a good first step.
Identify your improvements. Remember your progress.
Take care, sweetie!
