Girl in Need of a Tourniquet: Memoir of a Borderline Personality by Merri Lisa Johnson

1.0

Just no. Although I completely despise walking on eggshells, this book degrades those of us with bpd much more than that. I get the emotional intensity stuff, totally, but you don't have to mumble incoherently like a child that is totally winging the grammar. Some or many of the bpd diagnosed people are artists and poets and we do not fall under the category of that extent of a non-verbal disaster, i promise. I'm sorry. Part of this might be relatable but the author's forced attempt to make us feel like mumbling fools just pushed me not to give a damn about the rest of it. I'm in need of a vacation after reading this.
