I didn't even have to tell her that my mother was diagnosed with it. I don't really know what to feel but I kind of feel relieved. I feel a little strange.

I'm newly diagnosed as well. My psychiatrist briefly described the disorder but I had no other information to work off of. You would think they would give you a brochure "how to talk with your loved ones about BPD" (especially given our relationship obstacles), but they leave it completely up to us it seems?
