[quote=Anonymous]I'm glad you've moved forward, OP. It took a lot of strength and courage. I am very interested to hear how your daughter does.

I'm feeling stuck in a similar situation, same dx, because I fear for what my kids would have to deal with when in their father's custody, without me there to look out for them. They'd be spending time with him and his family, who have multiple issues with boundaries and BPD. I don't want to throw them to the wolves. I also think they'd feel abandoned by me.

He's now in therapy and working very hard, and is aware of his issues. He's actually making changes and working on the core damage, but it's daunting.

The kids are old enough that I've been able to talk to them about their father's mental illnesses, and as you've said, to let them know it's okay to love him, while trying to teach them it's not the norm and not acceptable for someone to act as he does.

It sounds like you're doing the right things with your talks with your daughter, and having a therapist in place for her. Stay strong. [/quote]
