Man that is tough.

I don't know what to say other than she has to go to therapy (drugs are hit and miss as there's really no drugs tailored for BPD. However, some shrinks will prescribe drugs "off label" for it just to see if it helps).

There is a talk therapy called DBT that has a decent success rate. In fact, it was created for BPD people. However, I have no idea what the scientific literature says about it when it comes to kids.

I know we have a psychologist that posts here and I remember seeing a psychiatrist post here as well. Maybe someone with their expertise will chime in.

Sorry you've gone through that.

They don't like diagnosing children with BPD which has hindered the research into treatments.
