Hello fellow sufferers of poor mental health! 

ANYWAYS, I have strong feelings that my boyfriend has BPD (a lot of past trauma from relationships as the likely cause) and I want to know ways to effectively be there for him and to like, just be helpful. I'm well-versed on my own set of issues, but BPD is not one of those issues so I don't really know if my attempts to help him are at all effective/what he needs. I love him to death but I feel like I don't know how to be the person he needs, so the relationship can be tricky at times.

As for some details that make this situation more difficult, I have ADHD and am super forgetful so I'll forget to text him back (we're long distance atm) which obviously is not great. He also tells me that he doesn't have the money available to get treatment so uhh, am I shit out of luck?

Thanks so much to everyone who took the time to read. I hope y'all have a nice day
