This book not only gives a thorough explanation of BPD, but also helps to explain what it's like to view and experience the world as someone with the disorder. Being able to put myself in the shoes of a person with BPD was incredibly helpful in recognizing ways that I can respond and adjust my behavior to support loved ones, and also to not take things personally. The writing is clear and easy to read and there are a lot of practical tips on how to serve as a consistent support system through any ups and downs. -Angela F. This book was so helpful and informative. Not only did it provide insight of BPD, it went into specifics of the symptoms, misconceptions, and actual facts! I'm tired of reading and hearing the negatives of BPD. This book didn't provide any negatives, just facts. It made it clear that BPD isn't gender specific and the symptoms of BPD may look different in every individual. The examples and scenarios provided is also helpful. Overall, great informative and helpful read. Sofia L. This is an incredibly helpful guide if you have a loved one with BPD or just want to learn more about the topic... not only did I not know much going in, but I realized afterward what I did know was incorrect. I have people in my family with mental health issues. This is a really impressive and comprehensive guide that gives you straightforward advice on how to help loved ones-and really importantly, something that a lot of people forget: how to help ourselves through it. It's so easy to get absolutely lost and overwhelmed when you're trying to help someone you love, and it's *so flipping helpful* to have advice about the best ways to help from someone who has the experience. I wish I had read this book long ago. -Jennifer A. As a Psychology major, I found this book highly intriguing and informative. It gives you more than enough information and insight on borderline personality disorder. There were even terminologies that I myself have not been introduced to until reading this publication. I have read many psychology and mental disorder textbooks throughout my college years, however this book surpassed the amount of context and information given. It was an incredible read, it made me understand how much borderline personality disorder affects a person, their family and loved ones. My favorite chapter was Healing Together , which shows hope for people with this disorder. It also depicts how loved ones can help and take part in healing and it inspires acceptance. Any mental disorder is challenging but having the right support and understanding can make it bearable to have healthy relationships. Highly recommend this book to anyone in the psych field, or someone who has a loved one with the disorder. -Steph J. This book really paints the full picture on borderline personality disorder (BPD) and how to live with it. The first half of the book is all about BPD (what it is, diagnosis, treatment), and the second half of the book is about how to navigate relationships if you have BPD or know someone with BPD. If you or a loved one has recently been diagnosed with BPD, this is the book for you, and the only book you will need! -Shilpa S.
