A very good book written by an extremely compassionate and giving psychiatrist on many aspects of being and treating a person with BPD.
I must say however in all my years dealing with this and seeing more professionals than I can count and taking more pills than is even reasonable, that I have never had anyone like this author. He claims to worry a great deal about his patients, so much so that his sleep is sometimes disturbed, he takes calls at 3 am, makes room in his schedule for someone in crisis....
Maybe they are out there, just that I have never come across one.
