For me as a senior with BPD, not diagnosed until i was in my 60's, an uncommon situation I acknowledge, but in some respects, possibly a more difficult & isolating age group, so maybe I am not contributing anything of value. I did find that the book almost exclusively deals with a much younger demographic, which is fine as the majority of sufferers are young people. Something I did find helpful, were the simply & plainly stated scenarios for a given problem, together with the recommended action. These were valuable for any age group. This book bears constant dipping into & re-reading in order to garner the most value from the highly qualified authors. Anyone who has BPD climbs mountains every day, this book gives us a "map" to follow .

A great reference, particularly for sufferers of borderline personality disorder (BPD). It provides evidence-based, practical and useful information to help sufferers understand the disorder and deal with it's symptoms. It's quite easy to use, with clearly set out chapters which address specific symptoms and provides check lists and exercises for dealing with them. It is a very good book to give as a gift to someone with BPD, particularly someone who has been recently diagnosed. James De'Ath BA (Comm St), BEd
