Hello, I was just wondering on what the opinion is on here of women with BPD becoming mothers?
I was diagnosed with BPD a year after having my daughter.
I have never done anything to hurt my child and I give her all the love I have.
But when my mood is low and I start to get snappy I feel like a terrible mother. Sometimes I think that maybe people like me aren't supposed to have children.
What are your views on this?
Whenever I have looked online for other mothers with BPD all I can find are constant articals or forums on how awful they are and how they ruined their child's life.
I know a lot of women with BPD can become terrible mothers but what about the ones that despite their problems are raising happy children? Surely there must be some out there? Or am I destined to become a monster that my daughter will hate?
I would really appreciate the help as I am feeling overwhelmed with guilt.
