Raised by BPD mother
Has anyone else here been raised by a BPD parent and what was your experience?
I was raised by an undiagnosed bpd mother and her mood swings scared me as a child. I had to console her constantly and I had to be the parent for both her, me and my sibling. I learned early on that I had to shove down my emotions because I had to be the stable one. She often threatened with suicide and would lock herself in the bathroom for hours. It really fucked me up and now that I’m older I often find that I gravitate towards people like my mother and the same kinda relationship evolves (often friendships).
