Inhaltsangabe

Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a complex illness that significantly impacts the lives of those who have it, as well as those close to them. In Beyond Borderline, two internationally acclaimed experts on BPD team up to present a rare glimpse into the personal lives and recovery of people with BPD. This provocative book uncovers the truth about this most misunderstood and stigmatized disorder, and offers an opportunity for a reexamination of BPD from the real experts-individuals suffering with it.
