arianatoorani 's review for:
Writing my first ever Goodreads review and giving this book a (rare for me) 5 star rating. This book was recommended to me by my therapist to help me better understand a family member who has BPD. The book explains BPD in great detail, what people who have BPD’s point of view is, and how to handle various situations when someone you care about has BPD. There are several accounts from people with BPD and their loved ones, which really helped offer various perspectives on the disorder. It was difficult to read, but definitely helped shed a light on BPD, and for me, offered a lot of clarity on things I encountered from my childhood. I’m very grateful for this book in what it has allowed me to see, and highly recommend it to anyone who has a loved one who has BPD.
Edit: I should note that I read the most current edition of this book, which was published in 2020. I am not sure if earlier versions feature the perspective of those with BPD, but I know this was a criticism of the earlier edition. I think it’s important to note that this book isn’t for someone with BPD, but rather, for people who have a loved one with BPD so you may better understand and support them.
