What Customers Say About I Hate You, Don't Leave Me: Understanding the Borderline Personality:

My book had a lot of underlining and writing in the margins, on a couple of pages.

They also provide hope for sufferers by outlining the road to recovery, which they honestly acknowledge isn't easy. I agree wholeheartedly with Jake (the dragon) Wilson's review. The authors take very complex clinical phenomena and translate them into language that is clear and understandable for the average reader.

I would highly recommend it to anyone who suffers from this mental illness it gives you the tools and steps and how to recover. I was diagnosed with it in 2005 of May and the book was easy to read and explained about my illness. I read this book and this book helped me give me a better insight about borderline personality disorder. I have suffered for years with borderline personality disorder for years.

Ugh. She "provokes" him to hit her. And I see from other reviews here that the book is full of lots of this. Wow, I was planning to order this book, but then I read the first few pages, available here at Amazon. I'm really glad I saw this before ordering the book. (We have already heard that this man likes to choose her clothes for her and control how she behaves which is classic Domestic Violence behavior). Right away we hear about a woman - presumably one with Borderline Personality Disorder - who regularly "provokes" her husband to hit her. Really.

it is easy to read for a lay person. the book though is amazing if you are a borderline patient or a family member of such. i recommend the book highly. The book arrived i one week, however it was not in the condition advertised. i would be careful purchasing from this seller.
