[QUOTE="Acacia, post: 749939, member: 19832"] I am sorry for the heartache and worry you are experiencing. We all want our children to be safe and happy. My adult daughter started exhibiting signs of borderline about age 20. As Busy says, borderline is horrible, both for the person experiencing it and for the person on the receiving end.. I've seen it all: cutting, substance abuse, rages, domestic violence. Now at 38 she refuses to have contact with me. If I did not give her money, a place to stay, etc., etc. she wanted nothing to do with me. Contact with her was harming my mental and physical health. You say, "She is my life." No matter how much it hurts, she must want her own life and recovery, and it is your job to love yourself enough to take care of yourself. That is not selfish; it is self-preservation. Keep posting.
