Borderline Personality Disorder: The Ultimate Practical Approach To Understanding, Coping, and Living With Borderline Personality Disorder
If you want to learn proven steps and strategies on how to live and thrive with borderline personality disorder then continue reading…
Borderline Personality Disorder is a commonly misunderstood phenomenon that many people battle with on a daily basis. The condition itself is now classified as one in which patients have a range of different levels of mental illness .They are not schizophrenic or delusional but generally have less emotional control than those who are considered mentally and emotionally healthy. Borderline, in this sense, means on a strange (often uncomfortable) border between mental and emotional stability and more serious mental illness. Misconceptions include the belief that BPD equals dangerous physical violence (the “Bunny Boiler” misconception).
Are you one of them?
The reality is any danger is usually to the self, rather than others. BPD sufferers experience emotions far more intensely than the rest of the population. In many senses, this is no bad thing but the lack of control of these emotions is where BPD patients risk self-harm, destructive behaviors and problematic relationship issues with others.
This book contains proven steps and strategies on how to live with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). Starting with an overview of the condition and its history the book takes a practical approach to BPD and how to manage the condition on a daily basis. In two parts, the book examines how to develop skills to manage BPD and then examines exercises and tools for doing so. Practical, common-sense and simple to understand, this book offers an easy to follow approach for those with BPD and their friends and families.

Easy quick read
I read it to help me understand it more. I don't have BPD but it had helped me to understand it and maybe better help those I know who have it.

Short and to the point
As a person living with BPD I found this book on point in regards to the description of BPD and the coping skills we must use daily! Over time I have learned these things and practice some daily. The author was knowledgeable and the book was easy to read and comprehend.

Really helpful start

Very informative!
I have a loved one who is struggling with BPD. I read this book in order to gain an understanding of the condition and how it affects those who struggle with it. I found this to be an informative and easy to follow read. The author gives a simple, yet through breakdown of BPD and lists coping strategies. I would definitely recommended this book to anyone who has BPD or is interested in learning about it.

A very basic book on BPD. It would probably make a good introduction to the illness for someone with no prior knowledge of it. It didn't offer anything new though. You'd find similar info just googling BPD. However, it is well written and easy to understand. A good starting point for anyone wishing to learn about Borderline Personality Disorder.

Short and to the Point
I loved that this book had no 'fluff'. It was short and to the point. There is quite a bit of info for someone just receiving a BPD diagnosis. I felt the descriptions of the disorder were extremely accurate and look forward to learning more about the different ways to manage my illness.
