دانلود کتاب Understanding and Loving a Person with Borderline Personality Disorder: Biblical and Practical Wisdom to Build Empathy, Preserve Boundaries, and Show Compassion

This book is for anyone who thought they were good friends with someone, only to be yelled at unexpectedly, for anyone who has a coworker who twists others' words, or for anyone who has a spouse who is violent and accusatory. Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a mental illness that can make loved ones feel as if it is their fault. Stephen Arterburn and Dr. Robert Wise wants readers to know it's not their fault and there is hope. In this book, they offer readers advice on how to relate to people with BPD at home, work, and church. Readers don't need to feel alone any longer. Help is on the way. This practical guide shows how to support someone with borderline personality disorder without supporting destructive behavior or losing yourself in the process.
