If you feel like you're on an unstable emotional rollercoaster with no end in sight, or if you're close to someone with BPD and don't know what to say or do, keep reading.
Do you often feel happy and excited one minute and then upset and sad the next without knowing why?
Are you having trouble keeping a relationship going because you're afraid your partner will leave?
Have you hurt a loved one or yourself because you were so angry you couldn't stop or control it?
Or, do you know someone with BPD and care about them, but you don't understand the disorder and want help?
You're not alone. Over four million people in the US also have symptoms of borderline personality disorder (BPD), such as fluctuating emotions, a strong fear of being left alone, and extreme anger.
This disorder isn't exactly unheard of. In fact, movies and real-life stories about people with this disorder often bring it to the public's attention. BPD is one of the most well-known mental health disorders. However, it is also one of the least understood.
In the harsh and overcritical world of today, it's easy to call someone "manipulative," "dangerous," or even "crazy" without knowing how hurtful it is... especially for somebody with BPD.
Worse, BPD symptoms don't just show up in one area of your life. They can show up in your mood, behavior, and self-image, among other things.
This could be why it's hard for you to keep your feelings in check, keep relationships going, do well at work, or even manage your money.
People often think that living with BPD is hopeless, but that's not true. It can be managed and treated.
The key to dealing with BPD is to learn as much as you can about it and use what you've learned. Lucky for you, this book tells you everything you need to know.
This book is a must-read if someone close to you has been overwhelmed in the last three months by:
- Anxiety, sadness, and anger, often for things that other people don't understand or don't think are relevant.
- Intense or uncontrollable emotional explosions.
- Unstable relationships with other people and low self-esteem.
- Fear of being left alone.
- Desperate feelings of being misunderstood.
- A sense of helplessness and hopelessness.
- Thoughts of hurting yourself or killing yourself.
- Doubts about who they are and if they are crazy.
Don't let BPD and the false ideas people have about it run your life. Don't forget that you didn't choose to have this problem.
What you can choose, though, is the right and healthiest way to deal with your symptoms and the best way for you to get rid of BPD.
You may feel like your moods, relationships, and actions are all out of control right now, but there is always hope. If you read this book, you've already taken one step toward getting better.
What's holding you back? If you want to take back control of your life from borderline personality disorder, you should read this book.
