| I Hate You, Don't Leave Me: Understanding the Borderline Personality by Avon Very Informative |
| This book is very interesting but informative at the same time. Sometimes these disorders are hard to relate to but this author gives a name and a face to BPD. Overall a great book. |
| I Hate You, Don't Leave Me: Understanding the Borderline Personality by Avon Cannot get this book off my Amazon home page |
I found this book full of despair and hopelessness. I bought it b/c my daughter's mother-in-law has this disorder. It is a misery living near her. She has just about destroyed their 10 year marriage and even the 4 yr old will say things to her grandma "Do you have ANY idea what you are talking about?" This book made us realize there is NOTHING that can be done to stop this woman from pushing and pulling at the same time. We are educated about anxiety, bipolar and depression and have witnessed remarkable control of symptoms. This book offered NOTHING.
AND FOR THREE YEARS IT POPS UP ON MY HOME PAGE FROM AMAZON --ALWAYS -- ALTHOUGH I HAVE BOUGHT HUNDREDS OF OTHER BOOKS AND NEVER WANT TO SEE THIS AGAIN. I have "deleted" it from my browsing reviews three times but it never, ever leaves. There is no way to contact Amazon and I honestly do not think I can tolerate being reminded of this book on a daily basis. |
| I Hate You, Don't Leave Me: Understanding the Borderline Personality by Avon Struggled to finish..... |
| This book did not hold my attention--my mind would wander. Put it aside several times but I finished with a struggle. |
| I Hate You, Don't Leave Me: Understanding the Borderline Personality by Avon Swings from simple to understand to technical and tough terrain |
| This book is well written and informative, but also very tough at times to get though technical language. I did learn a lot about a loved one by reading it, but it took commitment to get through. :) |
| I Hate You, Don't Leave Me: Understanding the Borderline Personality by Avon The Self Esteem Workbook |
| This book was a wonderful resource for me as a crisis counselor. My clients found many of the exercises to be therapeutic. |
