Book Review: “The Borderline Personality Disorder Survival Guide”

Full title:  “The Borderline Personality Disorder Survival Guide:  Everything You Need To Know About Living With BPD” by Alexander L. Chapman, Ph.D and Kim L. Gratz, Ph.D  Forward by Perry D. Hoffman, Ph.D, President of the National Education Alliance for Borderline Personality Disorder.

This book explained BPD and even explained a bit about Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), the treatment of choice for Borderline Personality Disorder.  It’s the treatment that helped me recover.  I like how, included in each chapter, were examples of what it’s like living with BPD.  There are even some great exercises to try to help you cope with your emotions.
