[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 145785"] Lisa - (((hugs))) I'm sorry that the stress is wearing you down. I could hear the frustration in your post. Nichole does seem to be maturing, albeit you couldn't tell with last night's antics. But that rage she has and the way she reacts to it is such a borderline trait. I have faith that Nichole will self-correct as she matures. She has so many things going for her, not the least of all is you. It would be easier if she could get into DBT, but I believe she can do it on her own. She's making so many steps in the right direction. It's not going to be easy and it will take a lot of conscious effort on her part. As a thought, I've posted a link to the DBT Training Manual used by tdocs in treating Borderline (BPD). Since you don't have access to this service in your area, maybe you could get the book and work on it together. Ideally, DBT is done in a group setting but that's not possible in your case. Here's the Barnes and Noble link. You can probably get it on Amazon, but I know I've seen it on B&N so I just looked there: [URL]http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Skills-Training-Manual-for-Treating-Borderline-Personality-Disorder/Marsha-M-Linehan/e/9780898620344/?itm=1[/URL] I used to have it and just went looking for it as I have no need for it and was going to send it to you.
