[@snowstormonsat]

This was a creepy one for me to hear. My name is Susan and my mother was born same year and also borderline and narcissistic. My mom was jealous, rage full, vindictive, and violent. She assaulted me violently many times as a child and really wanted to murder me but didn't want to go to jail. I ran away at 14 but cops didn't believe me and would send me back there. I would run away right after they returned me and I finally went into hiding. My sisters always went along with mothers lies and covered for her. By age of 16 I no longer had to hide and could get a job and apartment and start a life. I'm still healing from all that trauma but I have a successful life, well educated, especially on topic of personality disorder, I have a farm, log home in country and I'm a loving mother. I live with anxiety disorder and PTSD but that's it. I think it was my friends that saved me from suicide or destruction. I always had good friends trying to help me. My school and local police failed to help me. It was other children that saved me. And they also saved me from becoming an antisocial myself. I have empathy and love in my heart and will help anyone that needs it.

I've heard of this story a lot and thought about my own mother funny thing is we lived in Orangevale too in the early seventies first Roseville then Orangeville my mother definitely had borderline personality. I'm 65 now and I still suffer from the lifelong effects of her and my brothers and sisters are still in denial things turned out better for them the extended family is incomplete denial and many people that came in contact with my mother actually think that she was some kind of nice person makes me want to gag I was the eldest daughter so I was her scrapbook from the time I was a little girl from the time I can remember like three four definitely three she did similar horrific things she was absolutely textbook I didn't learn about borderline until strangely enough she got an apple iPad and I got on the iPad and was looking at mental disorders I did not know how to use a computer I still don't know how to use a computer but I put in some words like mother who abuses eldest daughter and borderline popped up I kept reading and there it was my whole life story. Just one little antidote there are so many that I couldn't even begin to tell you all of them but the last year we lived in Roseville when I was 15 which was 1972 and 73 she decided to attack me with a large butcher knife I was exactly the same size that she was and so I held her off in hand to hand combat she was very serious about stabbing me with it my younger brother only 2 years younger than me who was about 14 at the time just sat in his rocking chair and watched. The hand to hand went on tremendous struggle with me holding her wrist with the knife in it at Bay at one point I yelled to my brother to come get the knife away from her when I was holding her wrist he finally jumped up and took the knife away from her while she screamed at him not to that he would get the same if he did I was yelling to him hide it hide it and he was afraid to hide it what a chicken s*** at some point I broke away after he took the knife from her but he didn't hide it because he was scared I ran to my bedroom and shut the door and shoved my shoe underneath the door wedged it underneath so that she couldn't open the door it was a boat shoe tennis shoe I held the door knob as tight as I could there was no lock on the door so that she could not enter I used all my strength to keep her out she began to violently stab the shoe she got down in a crouching position and I could hear her stabbing the shoe like a maniac she thought my foot was inside the shoe my father came home from a trip about an hour later or so and she told him I might need to go to the hospital and he came to the door and asked me if I was okay I said yes I was okay I had been calling the local hotline almost every day that year and the year before that telling them everyday word for word verbatim what she was doing I think I had somebody call child welfare and they came out and they did absolutely nothing my mother had thrown everything out into the garage my belongings she cleared out my bedroom and threw my belongings out into the garage I moved them out too was told to child welfare said that all she had to do was let me sleep in the house on the couch that's Orangevale and that was by then 1973 the spring of 1973 just thought I'd like to say. I think they might have asked my brothers and sisters what happened but I wasn't around so I guess my brothers and sisters lied and just blew it off like same thing did exactly the same thing I have since read that this is typical of the other children in a borderline scrape goat situation. I almost found happiness with a young man who was becoming a psychologist he believed my stories but he was kind of selfish and conceited himself and just wanted to go on with his education he asked me to marry him twice but wouldn't get me out of the house became a psychologist but after a few years of working for the criminal justice system in Texas the Federal Criminal Justice in a in a jail he ghosted me basically after 25 years of friendship can't believe it a very sad life.

It's hard to believe but it happens. My mother let my brother and sister and I receive a lot of abuse, physical and sexual, because my stepdad was more important. He abused her too but she wouldn't leave him until he cheated on her. They had been childhood sweethearts and had some sort of intense sexual attraction from my observation but it was clearly a warped relationship. One time when I didn't clear the table on time my stepdad yanked me up from the sofa by my hair and shoved me across the dining room table dishes and all. Then he grabbed me by the throat and punched me in the face. I was a 13 year old girl. When I yelled at my mother saying he was going to kill me, she yelled and cussed at me and said if I had cleared the table on time this wouldn't have happened. In the time of my greatest fear she blamed me and abandoned me emotionally. After the adultery she divorced my stepdad. Many years later when I was in college we had some sort of heated discussion and she said if it wasn't for us kids she'd still be married. Wow. She would rather be married to an abusive adulterer. What a low blow. She had many untreated psychological problems. I now have a diagnosis of BPD, depression, and anxiety. She probably had BPD herself and unfortunately passed it down to me. But God has been faithful and provided two amazing Christian therapists since 1987. I had seen one other therapist when I was young and got kicked out of the house. I'm now 66 and still dealing with my personality disorder and the other psychological problems. But God has brought much healing into my life. My current therapist said we are going to meet as long as we can which is a great comfort. It will probably be his retirement as he's 70 but I try not to focus on that! So, yes, unfortunately some women are more interested in a lover than protecting their children. But I do have to admit this case that Dr. Grande analyzed is the most horrific I have ever heard 😭

Comments like yours can be extremely stigmatising, and while I personally don’t much care what others think of me when they learn I have BPD: to have people say things like “some people aren’t meant to be parents” when I damn well KNOW what a good parent I am to my 8 year old daughter (well, the best parent I can be, as we ALL are trying to be), and how much love and support there is in my home and what an amazing little confident, hilarious person she has turned out to be. Yeah… that kind of shit I cannot accept. Sure I’m treated now but I still had my daughter when I was at my sickest and I STILL made sure that she was never around me when I had my downswings. Made sure that she was with my husband while I tried everything to cope with my awful intensive depressive thoughts and feelings. You damn well bet I protected her from all of that. I’m not the best mother in the world, and anyone who says they are should not be believed, but I god damn love my child and my family and comments like this now spurs other people on under the stigmatising banner of “BORDERLIENS ARE ALL EVIL ANd ABUSIVE”

Brownie Hendricks Unfortunately, it is extremely common and often doesn't change as adults; although, more and more people are becoming aware nowadays, due to the internet, which is a positive thing. It seems like it's understandably difficult for children to accept that the adults they look up to, who are supposed to love them, actually don't and trauma bonding occurs as well. It can turn family members against each other later in life, especially the ones who didn't get abused, or cousins etc, as they only saw the so-called nice side of the person. I seem to be the only one in my family who can acknowledge that our parents were extremely troubled and abusive. I understand why it's too much for others to face the reality though, due to the pain involved, especially when sexual abuse is part of the situation. 😥

I was telling my Dad "oh my got its going to start a forest fire" We stopped on the side of the road briefly and before I got out I remember my Dad ( a Vietnam Marine Vet.) staring back at the fire not saying anything for a while but soon he had seen the fire was on open ground and he obviously had a bad feeling ,then said "someone is out here burning something" that's all he said and we left. I was just thinking he knew best and did not think too much of it. We got home he called authorities to report the fire and that was it.

I told my Psychiatrist and he agreed with me. I was on the island of Maui from July 16-23. I felt great. Last Thursday I on my own stopped taking Depakote and Buspirone.

Others were abandoned by men in all sorts of ways. Whichever way a woman becomes a single parent is really none of anyone's damn business to judge anyway! Shame on the people using this case of an extremely horrible abnormal woman to BASH single mothers like myself. Single mothers who never planned this life, but do the best we damn well can to make it work.

Yes, the *majority* of mothers are doing a great job raising their children, whether on their own or co-parenting after separation from their partners. The mother in this tragic case was an anomaly, and her mental health issues and subsequent violent behaviours likely stemmed from early childhood trauma that she experienced or witnessed. I give credit to single/solo mothers who do a good job parenting their kids, despite setbacks, sacrifices, and other challenges they face, with head held high and the strength and ethics to raise their children well.

I remember this case from the series Cold Case Files. The daughter Terry talked about how the sister who was shot, was placed on the sofa and Terry took care of her. The second daughter who was locked in the closet, Terry tried to help by giving her water with a straw and slipping her crackers and cookies. Except for the murdering part this woman is like my mother. She beat us (me most of all) with a thick leather belt, wouldn't let us attend school and was very abusive verbally. She would always say that if it wasn't for us she'd be a famous actress in Hollywood. Well, she actually did kill one person...her mother. My mommy dearest, got into a very loud and violent argument with a sister in law. I was in the room at the time and so was my grandmother. During the argument mom suddenly brandished a large butcher knife and threatened to kill her sister in law. My grandmother screamed and fainted, I was terrified myself and ran out of the house. My aunt ran out of house screaming that she was going to call the police. Shortly afterwards the paramedics arrived and my grandmother was taken to the hospital... she had a heart attack. The police though never arrived and mom was never charged or arrested. One thing that did happen, because mom had caused my grandmother to have a heart attack she wasn't allowed (by the rest of the family) to visit her in the hospital or when she returned to her home. In fact I never saw my grandmother again. Four months later, we received a phone call telling us that grandmother had had another heart attack and died. I will never forget mom's performance at her funeral. She went around the chapel wailing in a loud voice, "Mama! Mama!" and grabbing hold of anyone who'd let her and sob hysterically. I sat in the back and watched her with some bemusement because I noticed (I doubt anyone else did) that despite all the noise she made there were no tears. She died 15 years ago and believe me no one misses her. 😐
