Hi,
my 24 year old daughter has recently been diagnosed with BPD. She has recently moved back i to our house. I would love to attend a support group as I am feeling lost and fragile myself.
I don't want my action and lack of understanding to compromise her health or possible improvement.
thanks for any suggestions

Hi @ZAP Welcome to the forums.
There are a number of support options available in Qld for carers however the government last year changed the way services were delivered. Due to forum guidelines we cannot recommend any specific group but this is general information that may be of help
Wellways was awarded the govt contract to provide free mental health carer support services in Qld.

Carers Qld were not successful in their bid, but may still offer support groups.
