Support Groups for Family/Friends of BPD sufferers - Sydney

Hi there - I am wondering if anyone knows of any support groups in Sydney or NSW hotlines for families/friends of people suffering Borderline Personality Disorder?

We have done a lot of reading about it to understand it more but need some more specialised advice on how to get help.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Kayvee, I would suggest trying ARAFMI > http://www.arafmi.org/

They are an organisation that supports carers of people living with a mental illness, and they have done work specifically around borderline personality disorder so should be able to point you in the right direction.
