I have BPD [Borderline Personality disorder] should I tell my mom?
I was diagnosed BPD. [Borderline Personality disorder] at 18. My friend took me so that my mother wouldnt have to know.I'm now 20 and I'm not on any medication but I'm afraid that if my mother knew she would disown me. Should I tell her?

I think that you should tell your mom. For all you know she could find out from someone else and then she may be hurt that you couldn't come and tell her yourself. I doubt your mom would disown you because of an illness. You're mom loves you and could never disown her own child.
In my opinion maybe you should take some medication just to be safe.
Hope I helped.

Yes, I think you should tell your mother. I don't know if the two of you have personal issues with one another, or if you are just afraid to tell her, but either way, it's best not to hide something this serious from your own mother.
Why would she disown you? Because you're not perfect and have one flaw? I highly doubt a mother would disown her own child for something that is beyond their control.
Then, maybe you can talk to her about trying a medication of some sort? I think that if you asked your mother to help you with the medication, she'd appreciate being involved, too.
Good Luck!

I think you should tell her. She has a right to know and I doubt that she'd disown you. It's not something that you can help.
I also strongly urge you to seek out medication, it really does help to balance out the illness.
