Having BPD or maintaining a relationship with someone with BPD can be downright difficult. This book is an excellent starting point for anyone looking for some direction. It is easy to read and understand. Some of the things that stand out as shining stars to me are the sections on conflict resolution, signs of codependency, stages of a BPD relationship cycle, and defining boundaries.

My spouse received a working diagnosis of BPD recently and this book has really helped me understand the disorder better. In reading it, I learned some of the things that I could be doing differently to make our relationship sail smoother and also things to watch out for. I am hopeful that they will find it equally helpful.

The advice is not only grounded in psychological research but also focuses on real-world applications, making it easy to implement the suggestions in daily life. The delicate balance between offering compassion to those with BPD while also maintaining one’s own mental health. This is a particularly helpful for caregivers, partners, or family members who might struggle with feelings of burnout or frustration.

Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a mental health condition characterized by severe mood swings, unstable relationships, and impulsive behavior. Individuals with BPD often experience a strong fear of being abandoned and struggle to manage their emotions, particularly feelings of anger. This book offers so much important information to help outsiders understand BPD. I enjoyed the quotes at the beginning of each chapter. There is a section with myth busting, which is good to know the truths. Some of the other helpful things I found in this book are: signs of codependency, validation tips/table, you vs. I table, 7 stages of BPD relationship cycle, and defining types of boundaries. They also included a section in this book to help the person who is with the one with BPD. I feel that the best part of that section is the 10 self-care ideas, because you should always remember that you have to take care of yourself!! Grab this book and learn everything you need to about Borderline Personality Disorder! You won't regret it!

There is ample information in this book to help with regulating behaviors and actions to help people around you in general. Because the focus is on BPD, it applies here as well. I do wish there was more information about specifics other than a few minor notes, but I do like the helpful suggestions in identifying when things just aren’t right. This book is written with annotations from other books and professionals and I see it as an encourager.

Practical Strategies for BPD‼️
Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2025
Verified Purchase
This book offers help and suggestions for both people with BPD and their associates. One of the primary focuses is strategies for dealing with conflicts, particularly in the context of interactions with people who suffer from BPD. It also covers options like active listening, understanding of feelings, and measures to cool down a conflict before it worsens.

The book discusses several significant concepts, and it is essential to identify them to have a better perspective on dealing with relationships that BPD influences. Thus, it can be helpful for those who suffer from BPD, as well as for their family members, friends, therapists, and other professionals who are involved in the patient’s life. Integrating the conceptual with the practical seeks to minimize hostility and maximize empathy in relationships that are complicated by this condition. It is a “must-have” for Clinical Therapists!

For years my friend had mood swings and I would always try to figure out what his deal was. After reading this book I had a better understanding of borderline personality disorders. In school we use to joke about people having bipolar disorders but it seemed this one friend suffered from something like that. I talked to him about reflecting on personal growth and the importance of balancing boundaries and compassion. I gave him this book and he thanked me for it.

I thought I had BPD due to my intense mood swings, and assumed my doctors were dismissing my symptoms and thinking it was all in my head, so I picked up this book. This book goes deep into what exactly BPD is, and how to care for someone/yourself that may have it. Though I realized I probably don’t have BPD after reading this, I am grateful for reads like this that breaks downs exactly what a condition is in a down to earth, easy to read way.
