I found this site on accident Friday, and can't get enough! There are actually people out there who have the same problems I have, GENIUS!!! I am loving being able to know that there are people who feel the same way I do about things with a SD and BM. My SD BM is bipolar and so is SD, this makes for a great living situation!!! 
Anyway, glad to know there is a place I can vent and others will understand!

I found this site today and was glad to know that I was not alone with step parenting issues. however one issue I have I have not came across on this site. My SD will talk about her BM and my husbands past relationship together and the good times they once shared, or she will bring her BM into our conversations in some way. She has done this since she was five yrs.old and is now going on 18. I have mentioned this to my husband but, you know it is his little girl.
I love her to pieces and I know she loves me but, when it comes to this it hurts me so deeply that I feel like she will never accept her father and I being together.
Welcome!!!!

Such a relief to know you're NOT nuts!
Welcome! I've been here for a few weeks and I can honestly say that I'm more empowered because I know there are others out there who are going through the same crap I am dealing with.
Before I found this site I was suffering alone and thought I was headed for the looney bin. Hey--maybe this IS the looney bin!
We look forward to hearing more from you!

I'm pretty new here too.
I'm pretty new here too. This site is great! I complain to my friends about things, and they really try, but I just don't think anyone can really understand what its like to deal with a crazy BM, and a sometimes irrational and obnoxious S-kid, unless they've done it themselves.
This the 2nd week for me, but I feel as if . . .
I have known these ladies for years. Hold on honey, you are in for a little ride (and your little dog too!) Spill your guts !

Sounds Familiar
My SS and his BM are both bipolar. Fun, huh?
Welcome...
My skids BM is diagnosed bipolar as well. Fortunately, my SDs have not shown any symptoms of their mother's mental illness. I know the frustrations and hardships that comes with this diagnosis.
It's a long bumpy road and it's so comforting to find others who are willing to catch you when you fall and even make you laugh when you didn't think laughter was even possible....
