[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 383119, member: 1550"] I have no idea about the birthmom thing, but I do have four adopted kids and one is unattached from us. He is however a productive member of society. I agree with your daughter acting like a borderline. In spite of Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD), she does sound borderline..these people, adopted or not, have a nonstop string of "relationships" and they never end up good, but as soon as one is over, the person is already looking for the next one. It is an extreme fear of being alone. I know. I am borderline and have recovered quite a b it, however, I remember how sick it used to be and how I used to sit around crying and wondering why I always had to have "somebody." But I did. I'm glad there was no internet back then...lol...and that I got very lucky with hub #2 :) There is no known cause of borderline, but the newest info from my own psychiatrist is that now they feel it could very well be inherited. And it usually doesn't stand alone...anxiety, mood disorders of all sorts, and even disassociation can go with it. Although they used to think borderline was a part of sexual abuse as a child, I was never sexually abused. I didn't have loving parents, which may be a factor, but I'm positive I was never sexually abused. I have a great book about borderline. See if it fits. The symptoms are a lot like Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD). She could have both. There's good help out there now for borderline!!! I've read every book on the market for borderline and I think the newer ones are all helpful, but this one hit home the most and it explained the best treatment for it. Of course, the patient needs to be motivated to change. [url]http://www.amazon.com/Dialectical-Behavior-Therapy-Skills-Workbook/dp/1572245131[/url] [/QUOTE]
