Hi, my name is Josephine74!

Hello I've just joined this group I am a parent with a 24 year old autistic son twin boys who are 21 and my rocks and my 18 year old daughter who has BPD and self harms..... Just need to reach out as I'm not so strong any more and feel a bit helpless
Replies
It must be incredibly difficult to see your daughter going through such a difficult experience and I completely understand why you might feel that sense of helplessness.
As a disability equality charity, it's fair to say that our strengths lie more in the daily lives of disabled people than tackling complex mental health issues such as BPD. That said, it sounds like you need some support and if it would be of use to you, we'd be more than happy to try and advocate for some by way of a social care referral. If this would be something you'd like to pursue, please get in touch with us by emailing the community inbox at [email protected]
