Does your relationship seem like a maze? Do you not know your way through?
Sometimes having a relationship with someone with Borderline Personality Disorder can make you feel like your navigating a maze… one in which any false move could be a disaster. Some people call this state “walking on eggshells.” If you’re in a relationship with someone with BPD, you may feel stuck. You may fear saying the “wrong” thing to your loved one with BPD – the thing that triggers raging or blaming of all of their problems on you. Sometimes you may feel like there’s no hope at all.
Yet I have found there IS hope. The hope is found in learning effective relationship skills. That is what I teach loved ones of people with BPD (collectively the Non-BP’s or Non-BPD). I have been able to help hundreds of Non-BP’s in their relationships with these highly emotional people. Through my on-line support list, my books and my consulting services, I can help you learn to cope with a loved one with BPD. In fact, your loved one doesn’t even have to have BPD for these skills to help you. The skills can help anyone in a relationship with an Emotionally Sensitive Person (an ESP for short).
If you are at you wit’s end with your loved one – whether you are their parent, spouse/partner, sibling or friend – I can help you navigate the maze that living with an ESP or someone with BPD can become. Check out the resources on this web site and on my regular blog (www.anythingtostopthepain.com) to find out how to get out of the maze without failing into a deep hole.
