[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 724339, member: 1550"] Personality disorders cause this, not bipolar. And sometimes people are altered by addiction, even pot, or are just not nice. At any rate, I am sorry if I made anybody uncomfortable. I understand, because of my own difficult adult child, that the problem is the problem...the behavior. I just know I could never be like them, including like my own difficult child who I feel has Narcicistic traits. I have a mood disorder...it is controlled...I could never match his abuse, although he is getting more mindful of how he treats me as I have set strong boundaries. He is 40, for pity sales, and less able to handle life than his 21 year old sister and 24 year old very brave and grounded autistic brother. 40 is the one who wants all my time and is capable of meanness galore if he doesn't like what I say. It is at the point where I focus with gratitude on the loving kids in my life and my husband and dread when he calls me. The up side is he does have a good job and lives two states away. His son is tjere so he wont leave. He does afore his son. I ferl guilty saying this, but I am glad he is fawr away. He does not like any of his siblings, just me (lucky me) and i am very close to his siblings...it would be hard if he lived near the rest of us. I apologize for my response to the charactoration (sic) of people with bipolar. I do feel it is very over diagnosed and often diagnosed when it is really borderline, which does cause cruelty. But the sensitivity is MY problem, not yours. Please don't stop coming here because of that. In the end, helping each other cope is the reason we are here, not our/my petty hurts. This is a nice group. Honest. Forgive me please. [/QUOTE]
