[quote=Anonymous]I would be as warm and non judgmental as possible (even if you need to bite your tongue at times) in order to keep the lines of communication open. He definitely needs professional help as you know. Sometimes it’s helpful to frame it as “you’ve been under so much stress-treatment could help you handle all the difficult stuff you’re going through.” This has the benefit of being true but not likely to get his defenses up. It’s hard to get in with someone now so let him know his pcp can also help. Lastly, snd I mean this kindly, it’s possible your son also has borderline issues (or more mild boundary issues) which could in the long term benefit from dbt. Basically, I don’t know that this entire crisis can be laid at the feet of the girlfriend. Good luck to you and your son. [/quote]
