For Partners & Support Persons

Stop Walking on
Eggshells

Loving someone with Borderline Personality Disorder can feel like navigating a minefield in the dark. The uncertainty, the intensity, and the fear of saying the wrong thing can leave you feeling burnt out and helpless.

The Silent Struggle

You want to be supportive, but you're exhausted. The constant emotional volatility makes it hard to plan for the future or even enjoy the present. You might feel like you're losing your own identity in the process of trying to stabilize someone else's.

It's not about "fixing" them. It's about equipping yourself with the right tools to navigate the storms together, without losing yourself.

"I felt like I was constantly waiting for the other shoe to drop. I needed a way to understand what was happening without getting swept away by the emotion."
