Have you spoken with your daughter about your concerns with her future? Not just in your home, but in general? I know everyones different, our BPD expresses itself in different ways in our lives and we all react to things differently - and i dont know what kind of relationship you have with her.

Gas she been diagnosed? Has she evee sought help? Does she recognized that she has a mental illness? BPD is a dysfunction in how our brain works, and the treatment is supposed to teach us how to deal - are these things you ever spoke about with her? Or did she ever bring them up?

Its important , at least for me, to tecognoze that i had a serious problem that wasnt always under my control. Can you imagine waking up depressed in the morning, feeling calm and happy in the afternoon, angry in the evening, then severly depressed at night, beimg tottally confused all the time and thinking that its putely your fault- whenin reality it is a serious chemical imbalance in the brain that is causing you to misinterpert and misunderstand almost everything around you?

I kind of just rambled here, but maubr you can open the dialogue. Nobody, i reapet, nobody, healthy or ill like to be told, or forced how to behave.

Find out what she thinks is happening in her life, in her mind.

Again, i kimd of rambled, but i think that opening the dialogie is where to start before demanding a change because to be honest she'll probably flip her **** and do some drastic things to others and herself and she wont know how to cope.
