Stop Walking on Eggshells: Taking Your Life Back When Someone You Care about Has Borderline Personality Disorder

This book makes too many excuses. It had some interesting points here and there but overall it was not helpful Instead read: Loving the Self-Absorbed by Nina W. Brown Emotional Vampires by Albert J. Bernstein People of the Lie by M. Scott Peck Why is it always about you? By Sandy Hotchkiss Children of the Self-Absorbed by Nina W. Brown The Narcissistic Family by Robert M. Pressman & Stephanie Donaldson-Pressman When Love Is a Lie by Zari Ballard Disarming the Narcissist by Wendy T. Behary The Sociopath Next Door by Martha Stout

Excellent book for those who know someone or think they know someone that may have BPD. Vital communication skills and distress tolerance skills.

Instead of discussing how the victims of BPD abuse can get control of their lives, it spent too much time explaining how bad the BPDs feel about themselves. Interesting perspective but encouraging the victims to feel more compassion for their tormentors isn't very helpful.

The info is really great and makes you wonder why you didn't think of all of it before because it sounds so common sense and reasonable.
