Did an amazing job at keeping it short, simple, and readable using terms and explanations that average people can fully grasp and understand unlike most filled with medical and psychological terms. At the same time kept the book knowledgeable and accurate.
But what I absolutely love about this book is that when someone has bpd or a loved one who does, and they just start looking for information on the disorder they're already upset confused and anxious as it is. This book is the first one anybody should pick up and read. It calmly starts you off on your journey to learn and understand bpd. Some books can provide scary statistics, among other things that can hit like a brick wall, some may not be ready for that.
If anyone is going to start researching bpd then let this be your first book.

Informative

This was informative and easy to read and understand. I felt like the author got her point across to her readers. Very educational and a good resource for people struggling with BPD.

Great insight to our lives...
Good information for people who have loved ones who may live with BPD, they should know the truths, as stated in this book, rather than the misconceptions shown on TV, about those who live with this disorder.

Insightful

This was a good read. As a BPD, there was information that I needed to know about myself. To really try and incorporate good habits etc.

Very short book. I learned a few things I didn't already know. Best for someone who doesn't know much about BPD. Well written.
