Welcome to Litsy!

Like many people who‘ve found out they or a loved one have BPD, I came across Reiland‘s memoir pretty early in my research. The first 2/3rds are pretty harrowing, as Reiland unapologetically presents some awful behavior.

I am torn by how much I enjoyed her story overall and how much I want to call shenanigans on some of it. I don‘t want to discount her experience, but there are times where her circumstances seem too convenient. ⬇️

1.) It all depends on my mood, I don't really have a specific fave. Though lately I want all the donuts...
2.) Do Trolls & Trolls Holiday count?
3.) Tagged book. People like the author are the reason for all the horrible stigma attached to BPD.
4.) Not sure altogether, but actually active since September or October.
5.) 👌

When I was diagnosed with BPD, I had to do some research. This book by Rachel really helped me through some hard times. Her recovery really made a difference in my life. I recommend to anyone that needs help getting through it. She put a lot of things into perspective for me.
