This is a remarkable book. The honesty is startling and potent' Dawn French 'You have to buy this book. I feel that BPD is often a dirty word in the mental health world, but to see the realness and power that It holds over someone’s life is a real eye opener and I’m so glad, however hard it must have been to write, it is out there in public.
