8. BPD is a star player in my family history.

Like the autistic stuff, it's pretty easy to spot among my ancestors and relatives.

I do know it's one of those things some mental health professionals don't like to deal with. It's like with my brother, who has fibromyalgia, who burned through a few doctors before he got one who wasn't obviously frustrated, sometimes to the point of being jerks, about that diagnosis, especially in a guy since the female to male incidence ratio is estimated to be 7:1 to 9:1.

Beyond that I know nothing. We continue to play the cards as they are dealt.

for you and Mrs. V.
