About this audiobook
People with borderline personality disorder (BPD) can be intensely caring, warm, smart, and funny, but their behavior often drives away those closest to them. If you're struggling in a tumultuous relationship with someone with BPD, this is the book for you. Dr. Shari Manning helps you understand why your spouse, family member, or friend has such out-of-control emotions and how to change the way you can respond. Learn to use simple yet powerful strategies that can defuse crises, establish better boundaries, and radically transform your relationship. Empathic, hopeful, and science based, this is the first book for family and friends grounded in dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), the most effective treatment for BPD.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Heads up! You can hear the narrator swallow her saliva after each paragraph, and she has a lot of it. It’s an amazing book and very informative. It helped me understand my wife better. I would give it 5 stars if it wasn’t for the LOUD swallowing. Whoever approved this recording did the narrator wrong.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is an excellent resource for those who have loved ones that exhibit signs/behaviors associated with BPD, or have been diagnosed with BPD.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I love how this book gives a lot of examples to handle difficult situations with people with BPD. I appreciate that this book describe the feelings and thoughts of people with BPD that are usually interpreted as a form of manipulation. It makes me understand their behavior more. I definitely recommend this book for those who has someone with BPD around or people who just wanna improve interactions with humans as humans after all are emotional creatures.
