 Written on July 23, 2008 Summary: All I can say is thank you...again! I read "I hate you don't leave me, understanding BPD!" and I was amazed at how all of a sudden my life changed. I had been struggling with what I thought was depression a long time. That book made me realize why SSRI's (type of drug) didn't help me and then this book came along, by the same fantastic writer and once again has confirmed my long time issue with BPD and has helped to start on a new path to a better thought process, I struggle with BPD, but it doesn't mean I have to let it rule me. This is a good book for someone who wants to understand themselves and an excellent book for someone who loves someone with BPD. Written on July 12, 2008 Summary: Good book I bought this book out of curiosity. After reading the book, I feel I have a good although not complete understanding of BPD. If you are a friend of, or a sibling/parent of someone with BPD, or if you have BPD, then this book is good for the tips contained at the end of the chapters. Written on June 7, 2008 Summary: this one's better than Hate You I liked this book better than I Hate You--Don't Leave Me because it offers more case studies. The authors don't get on a soapbox about the negative aspects of modern life that may bring about more folks dealing with BPD. Written on January 2, 2008 Summary: From a Borderline to the world I absolutely loved this book. It was something I read about halfway into my transformation. I read reviews and my mom read a bunch of books, but some were too technical and BORING for me to get into and in true borderline style I quit reading with out even getting halfway through them; but this one kept me interested. And now after more then a year of what will be life long treatment I am happy to report I have not been suicidal in over a year, I have not wanted to hurt myself in over a year and I have been in a stable marriage for over a year. (Can you guess my transformation started over a year ago :D ) This book really showed me that there was hope for people like me, and that I needed to keep working hard and that it would get easier and it has gotten easier to cope, easier to live my life. But most importantly it showed me that even if these "people" weren't real people someone out there had enough knowledge of what goes on inside my head to write a book about it, and that is truely helpful. Written on May 23, 2007 Summary: Great insight for yourself or someone you love I ordered this book to see if I found that the descriptions here suited me better than bipolar disorder. The stories could be my own life read back to me. I was happy to find the insights that this book provides for those of us who struggle with BPD and those of us who are dealing with someone with BPD. Great book. Highly recommended |
