[quote=Anonymous]It's my understanding that personality disorders are rarely diagnoses prior to adulthood. Your kid is getting closer to 18, but I'm a little surprised it would show up like this (though I am no expert). That aside, it seems to me that a lot of the traits of BPD seem to also potentially be the result of ADHD and anxiety. Have you been working on addressing those diagnoses already? Is there more you can do on those? NAMI is a good recommendation but likely to be more adult-focused for personality disorders. Nonetheless, you might find a parent group of adult children there. They have some forums for discussion. I would also ask the therapist for support groups recs.[/quote]
