I would just like to comment on this statement. I am borderline personality, I am a mother, but I am not narcissistic. Narcissistic Personality Disorder and Borderline Personality Disorder are very separate and very different disorders. They may have some elements that are similar, but they are unique in and of themselves.
I haven't always been the best mother I should have been, but I am a good mother, and I do value my kids and always have, over and above myself.
