The symptoms can range from mild to severe based on the degree of BPD the person is suffering from. When you are living with a person with BPD and that person is not ready to take up a treatment for the condition, then follow these suggestions to live problem free.
Be consistent in nature:
If you have promised your loved one about something, make sure that you maintain your word. Whether you are facing a tearful meltdown or an outburst of anger, make sure that you are consistent, though it is not easy.
Do not shoulder other’s responsibility:
Never rescue your loved one with BPD by owing up responsibility. If he or she breaks the glass at home or a window of your car, ask them to pay for the damage or replace it. This will give them a chance to realize their mistake and change.
Give honest reviews:
People with BPD tend to forget how bad they have been or behaved, as they have no clue about their condition. So offer a honest review about what they did as he or she must realize that they have been awful!
