No you're not wrong to do that. I did the same thing. I told my parents, but asked them not to tell...but I've also told two other friends of mine (and also asked them not to tell) and told DHs family (and asked them not to tell). It's our information to give to whom we choose. We are giving them information and allowing them to share a part of our lives. If they can't live up to that trust, then perhaps next time they won't receive the information at the same time or in the same way.
I don't know if that helps. It's very hard working with people with borderline personality disorder...I can't imagine my mother having something like that. I'm sure you've probably read a bunch of things or talked to others for support. If not, I'd recommend "Stop Walking on Eggshells: Taking Your Life Back When Someone you Care About has Borderline Personality Disorder", or perhaps an alanon support group. {{{Hugs}}}
