[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 479390, member: 1514"] Hi and welcome to the board but I am sorry you had to find us. I am going to throw something else out there. Is it at all possible she was molested at a very very young age, even before she could remember it? Or was she hospitalized in the first two years of life for any type of surgery even tubes in her ears? Divorce, death of a grandparent at that time that she was very close to? Anyway...what I am getting to is that what she reminds me of is Borderline Personality Disorder and sometimes that can be brought on by early childhood trauma. But not always. It can also be brought out by what is known as an invalidating mesh between the child and her environment which can be her temperament and yours just not meshing or hers and her daycare, school, babysitters, etc. its not saying a parent did a darned thing wrong but some peoples innate temperaments just dont mesh well with another persons. Often you wont see this displaying itself until the child hits puberty because that is when the child starts the process of breaking the bonds with parents. I am both bipolar and borderline. We know were my borderline came from because my mother was evil incarnate and I am certainly not suggesting you are or were. Most people who have borderline dont have Mommy Dearest for a mother. I just got lucky...lol. Read up on borderline and see what you think. There are some very good websites for parents of borderline teens and young adults. I dont have my bookmarks on this computer but if you want me to search them out I am sure I could find them. [/QUOTE]
