About this book


Do you ever feel like you're emotionally on a roller coaster? Not just because of your unstable emotions or relationships, but also the wavering sense of who you are. People with BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder) tend to be extremely sensitive. Small things can trigger intense reactions. And once upset, they have trouble calming down. It's easy to understand how this emotional volatility and inability to self-soothe leads to relationship turmoil and impulsive behavior. If you have BPD, everything feels unstable: your relationships, moods, thinking, behavior, even your identity. In the past, many mental health professionals found it difficult to treat borderline personality disorder, so they came to the conclusion that there was little to be done. But we now know that BPD is treatable. In fact, the long-term prognosis for BPD is better than those for depression and bipolar disorder. However, it requires a specialized approach. Here's what you'll find inside: history and causes of Borderline Personality Disorder the 9 side effects of BPD loving a person with BPD how can others help a companion or relative with BPD self-help tips ...and much more!
