Surviving a Borderline Parent is the first step-by-step guide for
adult children of parents with borderline personality disorder.
Between 6 and 10 million people in the US suffer from borderline
personality disorder. This book teaches adult children how to
overcome the devastating effects of growing up with a parent who
suffers from BPD.
Although relatively common, borderline personality disorder
(BPD) is often overlooked or misdiagnosed by therapists and
clinicians and denied by those who suffer from it.
Symptoms of this problem include unpredictability, violence and
uncontrollable anger, deep depression and self-abuse. Parents with
BPD are often unable to provide for the basic physical and
emotional needs of their children. In an ironic and painful role
reversal, BPD parents can actually raise children to be their
caretakers. They may burden even very young children with adult
responsibilities.
If you were raised by a BPD parent, your childhood was a
volatile and painful time. This book, the first written
specifically for children of borderline parents, offers
step-by-step guidance to understanding and overcoming the lasting
effects of being raised by a person suffering from this disorder.
Discover specific coping strategies for dealing with issues common
to children of borderline parents: low self-esteem, lack of trust,
guilt, and hypersensitivity. Make the major decision whether to
confront your parent about his or her condition.
