[quote=Anonymous]Good point by the pp who mentioned that OP does not know if her DH has borderline, let alone any suggestions about medications . I'm the PP mother of a young adult DC with BPD and I really agree with that and should have stated it more emphatically in my post. BPD is not something that a spouse or new therapist can diagnose. It really, really needs to be a full psych evaluation. You want to get it right so that the treatment fits the illness.

(I only mentioned the medications because you will see that they are ones used to treat many other illnesses. They are not uncommon or rare or hard to find. In combination, they work well for my DC. With BPD, you manage the symptoms, which can vary. But a mood stabilizer is a fairly common prescription. This is just in the category of FYI. It is not meant to imply that OPs spouse has BPD. But if it turns out that he does, down the road, there is help available.)

Again, I think there are better online forums than this one in providing help to OP.
