[QUOTE="Naina, post: 741791, member: 23442"] Thank you all for your kind input. It means a lot to me that you took the time to respond. Yes, I am quite sure she has a personality disorder. Most likely Borderline (BPD). When she was younger I was quite involved in her treatment, but as an adult she has been reluctant to let me in. And as you are aware, the docs no longer inform you to the point of being ridiculous. One time she was hospitalized on a regular floor. When I went in to see her she was on suicide watch. There was a nurse? Sitting with her at all times. i was under the impression she was in for a liver ailment. No one would give me any info. To this day I have no clue what really happened. She was transferred 100 miles away to an open bed. The funny thing, they were more than happy to call me and get me involved when it came time to pick her up. So I guess what I'm saying is I no longer get too involved with her care. Kind of a self preservation thing. She has a case worker who I hope is keeping her best interest at heart. I have spent the first 30 years of her life keeping her alive and getting her into adult hood. On a positive, she is quite self aware and is compliant with her medications, unless she decides to self medicated. Right now she seems to be on the wagon. I really thought if I could get to that mile stone I would be ok. Now I am coming to terms that she may have reached her peak of development and function. What I am seeing is a decline. I need to figure out a way to deal with that. There are times I just want to pack up with my husband and leave the state. My husband is very laid back and comfortable. If I could only convince him it would be adios. Once again, thank you all for your kind words and allowing me to unload. [/QUOTE]
