About this audiobook
Are you trapped in a toxic relationship? Have you been led to believe that it’s you who’s always wrong?
Are uncontrolled emotions isolating you and destroying everything they touch?
Are you afraid of what will happen if you decide to break out of your relationship?
Being in a relationship with a person who has a borderline personality means living a love-hate relationship that’s obsessive, complicated and unstable. Unfortunately, these kinds of relationships can be particularly difficult to escape from. However long the relationship has lasted, a relationship with a person who has BPD typically creates a destabilizing impact on the psyche of those who live with it, and leaves emotional wounds that are very difficult to heal.
Sufferers of BPD live at the limit, they are acrobats in a precarious balance on a razor’s edge.
This book is essential reading if, in the last three months, a person that you are close to has been overwhelmed by:
- Anxiety, depression and anger, often for reasons that others find difficult to understand or that they consider inconsequential.
- Intense or uncontrollable emotional explosions.
- Instability in interpersonal relationships and self-esteem.
- Concerns about abandonment.
- Desperate feelings of being misunderstood.
- Feelings of powerlessness and despair.
- Ideas about self-harm and/or suicide.
- Doubts about themselves and their sanity.
This book is not the solution to all your problems, but I GUARANTEE that if you read and carefully review all the chapters of this book, ABSORB all the tips and finally APPLY the techniques provided by this manual, you will immediately feel a feeling of relief and you will have all the tools you need to rebuild a relaxed and peaceful life.

Reviews for Borderline Personality Disorder

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5I have BPD and am on my life-long journey of understanding myself. This book seeks to educate, which it does well, but also reinforces the stigmas it hopes to correct through it’s ignorant word-choices. This is especially detrimental to those with BPD who seek to better understand their disorder and themselves; especially seeing as many struggle to understand their identity. It compares people with BPD to children and monsters, calling them manipulative.
