Yes, I read the book and it really made a great deal of sense to me as a sister of a borderline who was a textbook
extreme case. Perhaps that's not you but it sure is right on the money about the disorder.
Just being educated will help you see if you have borderline
tendancies. You're ahead of the curve if you haven't had the dubious history of broken relationships that accompany
BPD. (I've had a few myself ..we all do) Get out in life and get messy...develop friendships when your ready...but be aware of how healthy these are.
If you need help, find a therapist or friends here.
Best of luck,
Annie
