When your daughter has BPD

This is a great resource to have when understanding BPD and how the family unit can cope with the disorder. It’s easy to read and the strategies are easy to use. I highly recommend this book.

Very helpful

Very helpful in understanding my daughter’s struggles and how to react and deal with issues.

Most helpful book on the subject yet

I think the doctor interviewed my daughter for this book. I am joking but it sounds exactly like my daughter...Extremely helpful. Provides coping strategies for the parents of BPD daughters. My daughter is a grown woman but this was still very helpful in explaining her behavior.

We/she has seen numerous therapists over many years. This was the most enlightened info have gotten to date. Highly recommend

This really helped me understand

The reading was a little boring to listen to and would have been better if it was read by someone with more of an uplifting voice
