In this compassionate guide, Jerold Kriesman-author of I Hate You,
Don't Leave Me-offers a powerful set of tools to help you express
yourself, set boundaries, and cultivate healthy communication with
a loved one who is diagnosed with borderline personality disorder
(BPD). If you have a loved one with BPD, you need real,
proven-effective strategies to help you navigate the intense
emotions and conflict that can arise in daily interactions and
conversations. People with BPD often feel anger, pain, and hurt
from a history of invalidation and disappointment, and their
difficulty in regulating emotions can lead to moments of lashing
out that can confuse and upset those around them. Written by a
psychiatrist with more than 40 years of experience in treating BPD,
I Hate You, Tell Me You Love Me offers a breakthrough,
compassionate approach to communicating with a loved one who has
BPD. The SET (support, empathy, truth) method outlined in this book
is a powerful and simple tool that will allow you to honestly
address your loved one's demands, assertions, and feelings while
still maintaining appropriate boundaries. Each step builds on the
last, helping you build up a consistent and reliable communication
process. In this book, you'll find a review of BPD and the common
communication problems inherent in the disorder. You'll learn how
SET can address these issues. And finally, you'll find detailed
examples of specific scenarios that can arise when talking to a
loved one with BPD. Remember-validation isn't the same as
agreement. You can help your loved one feel validated while still
maintaining your own boundaries. This essential guide will show you
how.
