Product Description

Borderline Personality Disorder. "What the hell was that?" raged Rachel Reiland when she read the diagnosis written in her medical chart. As the 29-year-old accountant, wife, and mother of young children would soon discover, it was the diagnosis that finally explained her explosive anger, manipulative behaviors, and self-destructive episodes - including bouts of anorexia, substance abuse, and sexual promiscuity. With astonishing honesty, Reiland's memoir reveals what mental illness feels like and looks like from the inside, and how healing from such a devastating disease is possible through intensive therapy and the support of loved ones.

©2004 Rachel Reiland; (P)2010 Audible, Inc.

Format:Paperback
Rachel's story of both her life living with borderline personality disorder (BPD), and her recovery from the disorder, is an extremely poignant one. This is one of the most emotionally intense and draining books I have ever read, but I am honoured to have had the opportunity to read about Rachel's life. For people both with and without BPD, this book is an incredible journey and anyone reading it may find themselves holding back the tears. For people with BPD, this book is a chance to discover that you are not alone (although please be aware that the book may be "triggering" to some people). For people without BPD, this book is a chance to discover what it is really like to live life with such a profoundly emotionally, socially and even physically debilitating disorder. I strongly recommend reading this book.

I have found it surprisingly difficult to find books about BPD from a sufferer's perspective, and the ones written by 'experts' have not been helpful for me on the whole.

This book gives a detailed account of what it is like to live within the chaos of borderline personality disorder. It shows how the therapeutic relationship with a therapist can transform the most disturbed of souls. Well worth a read if you identify yourself as having BPD.

Format:Paperback
reading this book i was amazed how much of her life, feelings, thoughts, actions, pain etc reflected my own! It made me realise just how much BPD effects your life and made me realise things about myself that i wouldn't have thought about or noticed without reading this book! I would say its a MUST HAVEA READ for all bpd suffers or people want to try and understand the condition! I couldn't put it down!
