The reason

I created this blog to gather friends and family of my sister, who had been diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder many years ago. Following that diagnosis, there was not much information on the subject, nor an actual plan in place to help those suffering from this disorder. Each person believing they could help; families, courts, and therapists were left in bewilderment by the actions and words of the persons afflicted.

After the last cycle my sister went though lasting about 3 years, we realized she has not grown out of it as we had hoped would happen- she's in her early 30's. Luckily as a family we have come a long way and are ready to look truth in the face and stop reacting to her episodes.

While there is still much to be tested and researched on the subject, there is a lot more helpful information out there now. I am dedicating time to do as much research as I can and share that info here with those who want to support those with Borderline or like symptoms. It will take us all working together to make the changes we hope for.
This is not an easy path, but living in the whirlwind of a Borderline is always much worse.


Did you know?...

* Most recent statistics show that 25% of American's are thought to suffer from Borderline Personality Disorder.

*Borderlines always want to get well, but the struggle to treat usually gets
warped by their own self-destructing delusions.

*People afflicted have varying degrees of the symptoms which are not strictly
brought on by either environment or genetics.

Please share your thoughts and experiences as an appropriate helpful tool. This is not a place to name bash or put down anyone. This is a serious illness, with very real feelings and emotions on all sides.
