Hi I have been living with my mother recently to finish school and I have begun to notice the reasons why I moved away at 17 years old and not continue contact with her. After reading up on borderline pers. I see that she def. fits! She lives vicariously through my teenage sister (focusing only on her social life, boyfriends etc.), she has a problem with lying about everything no matter how insignificant, she makes things up to fight with me, she has this amazing hate for me...this list could go on for days but what I was wondering is she also seems to have something else going on as well. Sounds strange but she sits in front of the same movie for HOURS she sits in front of the computer looking through websites about the same movie for hours as well. She wont get dressed, and goes from talking semi-pleasantly to screaming name calling and threatening within a matter of minutes..
She refuses to see a therapist...stating that SHE isnt the crazy person in the house, she did go to her GP once and he gave her Zoloft and Xanax..both of which she refuses to take because "it isnt fair that she should take meds when everyone else needs mental help and not her".
After taking the Xanax for the first time she said that it made her suicidal (never heard that one) When I tell people some of the things that she does and says it seems unbelievable.

I am not coping with the situation very well and have become extremely depressed. wow I just vented a whole lot ...sorry
