I always considered myself to have a relatively happy early childhood, albeit one major trauma as an early teen. I never realized until I really looked into BPD and how family dynamic plays into it and.... I am surprised at how genuinely abusive my family life was, all the while I thought everything was fine. It is truly bizarre how blind you can be to trauma. So many early signs I missed, because that’s just how my life was and that’s how I thought life was.
