My mom is abusive and has BPD, but refuses to get help or believe anything is wrong with her. I have bipolar, and she's a huge part of why I have social anxiety and PTSD. I recognize my mental illness and have been in treatment for it for many years. We were estranged for 5 years after I had to get an Order of Protection against my parents for Adult Abuse & Stalking, but now talk on the phone once or twice a month, and exchange snail mail letters. I'm already getting so anxious about Mother's Day coming up because I'll have to call her. Anyone else getting anxious over MD?
