FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description In the UK today, approximately 1.6 million people awoke to the same problem (thats if theyd managed to sleep) - how to survive another day alongside the torrid and turbulent emotions associated with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). Although youd struggle to find a room big enough to house them all at once, its not a popular mental health problem and has received little publicity.
