When we are raised in an environment with a parent who has the signs and symptoms of BPD, we do not realize the impact that it has on our daily lives. As children, we often had no idea what was going on with mom or dad. One minute everything seemed great and the next minute it felt as though we were living amid an emotional roller coaster.  It was always confusing, wondering which version of them we would get on any particular day. As children, this is a very difficult situation to live with, no one explained to us what was going on. In the process, it felt like we had lost our childhood to their emotions, constantly trying to change into what we thought they wanted us to be. On today’s show, I am going to talk about what it is like to be raised by a parent who has signs and symptoms of BPD. What it is like to deal with this as an adult. What does it do to us, how does it affect us, and our choices based on these situations?
