Bpd and parenting
I have bpd that is unmedicated and no professional help for it and I have a 10 week old very cute little boy and I'm scared how my diagnosis is going to affect him growing up . Can anyone help please?

That's really kind of you to be thinking about your baby boy and just wanting to make sure that he grows up feeling safe and healthy. 💜
Here is a resource I was able to find that has links to some articles/videos about being a parent while having BPD.

Hi there, long time struggling with Mental health and was diagnosed with BPD I was highly medicated and then out of nowhere I found myself in a position where I was single handedly raising my baby boy and had the same concerns, he will be 4 this year and I also have a little boy who was 1 today with my new partner who also has BPD aswell, we manage we get through good times and bad, please feel free to ask me anything regarding looking after your child while struggling with BPD and hopefully I can offer you some help and support and help ease your anxieties regarding this matter
Stay strong <3
