Great resource for families
This book gives practioners and family memebers a practical and true basis for coping with the love ones of clients in thier life that struggle with an Axis II.
Crack the egg
The book was well laid out, with good examples. I was able to put together a coherent picture of what I was experiencing, and began to put my experiences in a better perspective. Although not everything in the book pertained to my relationship, it certainly illuminated many aspects of what I was feeling and what I ultimately gained the courage to do.
Stop Walking on Eggshells
This book, without a doubt, helped my family more than any other understand our BLPD inlaw,it's easy to read and you know the author has dealt with this disorder and knows what she's talking about.
