[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 9152, member: 1514"] I am not beating myself up. I understand that there is a predisposition if you will to being susceptible to "getting" something like borderline. Maybe I wouldnt have developed it if certain factors hadnt played out in my life such as having my mom, being abused by a babysitter at age 3, the continued abuse by my mom. See...my mom abused me from the time I was an infant. I have no doubt I was early onset bipolar but how early is hard to tell considering when the when the borderline may have started too. When a child is abused from early infancy its really iffy. I can relate to Timer Ladys KT in many ways. I know I did the best I could with what I knew. Im sure my mom thought she did too. This could be traced back someplace Im sure. We think my mom was schizoaffective but she wasnt treated. She thought she was just fine the rest of the world was crazy...lol. I just think it is something to really think about so we can be more careful and maybe warn our kids as they get older to be extra careful about when they have kids. I think the reason that only Cory was affected was because he was the only one who had the predisposition for the problems. Maybe he had the genetic flaws. He obviously took more after me than the other two did. Poor kid! [/QUOTE]
