Older age BPD
A dear friend of mine has been trying to find a forum to share her experiences with BPD. The only ones she's found have shunned her because of her age (64). Any ideas?. I know there are forum's on Facebook but she doesn't want to join FB.

Re: Older age BPD
There are plenty of older people here on the Sane forums and your friend would be most welcome. Do they care for someone with BPD or do they have a lived experience with it?

Re: Older age BPD
If you look in the search bar for borderline or bpd you will find others that care for people with bpd.
Have you got any support for yourself?

Re: Older age BPD
Hey @SidStoreman
I was just passing by and thought I'd check in to see how your friend is going in connecting with some support?
As @Former-Member and @Wattle3 mentioned, you might like to encourage them to try out the SANE Forums. We have a number of members in their 60's who have an expereince of BPD. Our Lived Experience section is specifically for people living with a mental illness and might be a good resource for your friend to try 🙂
