People with the borderline personality disorder (BPD) are often self-destructive and surrounded by chaos. This guide for spouses, family, and friends gives advice on surviving emotional crises, making decisions about hospitalization, and coping. Author Manning is a former trainer in dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), one of the only evidence-based treatments for BPD. In addition to explaining the complex web of symptoms and causes of BPD, she introduces the same communication and validation skills that are taught to DBT therapists, demonstrated with many examples from the author's professional experience. A final chapter on getting help briefly reviews the four main therapies for BPD: DBT, mentalization-based therapy, schema-focused therapy, and transference-focused psychotherapy. Resource pages list therapy clinics, research centers, and advocacy and treatment organizations in the US, Canada, the UK, New Zealand, and Australia. Books and DVDs are also listed.
