Good book!!

And if you liked it, you might enjoy reading "Get Me Out of Here!" by Rachel Reiland, all about her recovery from BPD. It's a great book, she's funny, and following her journey is a treat. ... I don't normally like to read about other people's journeys, but this was different. It really shows how the symptoms affect a person's life, what therapy is like, what feeling better is like. I really recommend it!

Both books helped me take a better look at myself and then I worked up the courage to ask my therapist if she thought that Borderline described me. She did and had for some time. I don't much like labels, but then again it gives a person some explanation for feelings and behaviors.
