Understanding and Treating Borderline Personality Disorder: A Guide for Professionals and Families offers both a valuable update for mental health professionals and much-needed information and encouragement for BPD patients and their families and friends. The editors of this eminently practical and accessible text have brought together the wide-ranging and updated perspectives of 15 recognized experts who discuss topics such as - A new understanding of BPD, suggesting that individuals may be genetically prone to developing BPD and that certain stressful events may trigger its onset- New evidence for the success of various forms of psychotherapy, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), in reducing self-injury, drug dependence, and days in the hospital for some groups of people with BPD- Pharmacology research showing that the use of specific medications can relieve the cognitive, affective, and impulsive symptoms experienced by individuals with BPD, as part of a comprehensive psychosocial treatment plan- New resources for families to help them deal with the dysregulated emotions of their loved ones with BPD and to build effective support systems for themselves

Yet much remains to be done. Research on BPD is 20 to 30 years behind that on other major psychiatric disorders such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. Despite evidence to the contrary, much of the professional literature on BPD continues to focus on childhood trauma, abuse, and neglect as triggers for BPD -- to the detriment of both patient and family.

Families of people with BPD must deal with an array of burdens in coping with the illness, often without basic information. The chapters on families and BPD give voice to the experience of BPD from the perspective of individuals and family members, and offer the hope that family involvement in treatment will be beneficial to everyone.

Above all, this book is about the partnership between mental health professionals and families affected by BPD, and about how such a partnership can advance our understanding and treatment of this disorder and provide hope for the future.

BPD affects a significant percentage of the population. It is a disorder of relationships, one whose symptoms occur most in interpersonal contexts-and thus impact any number of interpersonal connections in life. When people have BPD, they may struggle to manage their emotions on a daily basis, and have to deal with fears of abandonment, anger issues, self-injury, and even suicidality-all of which can lead to even more instability in relationships. This powerful compilation of stories reveals the deeply personal, firsthand perspectives of people who suffer with BPD, explores the numerous ways in which this disorder has affected their lives, and outlines the most debilitating and misunderstood symptoms of BPD (the most tragic being suicide). Beyond Borderline delves into the many ways the disorder can present-as well as the many paths to recovery-using evidence-based tools from dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), mindfulness meditation, metallization-based therapy (MBT), and more. BPD is a challenging disorder that impacts people's lives and relationships in countless ways. With this book-full of intimate accounts that reflect the myriad ways BPD presents and how it affects not just those afflicted, but also their loved ones-you'll gain a deeper understanding of the disorder and learn how to move forward on the path toward healing while dealing with BPD.

Disturbo di personalita borderline e un testo conciso, chiaro, e prevalentemente pratico, che offre un prezioso aggiornamento ai professionisti della salute mentale soddisfacendo contemporaneamente la grande richiesta di informazione e supporto che proviene dagli stessi pazienti e dalle loro famiglie e amici. I capitoli dedicati alla famiglia danno voce ad esperienze vissute, rinforzando la speranza che il coinvolgimento del gruppo familiare nella terapia possa essere di beneficio per tutti.

Questo volume, allo stesso tempo professionale e divulgativo, raccoglie i lungimiranti e aggiornati punti di vista di 15 esperti. Questi autori offrono un nuovo modo di interpretare il DPB, suggerendo che fattori genetici ed eventi stressanti possono combinarsi per scatenare la sua insorgenza; portano inoltre nuove evidenze a supporto dei benefici ottenuti con specifiche terapie farmacologiche e diverse forma di psicoterapia, tra cui la terapia comportamentale dialettica. Per finire, offrono nuove risorse alle famiglie per aiutarle a rapportarsi con le sregolate emozioni delle persone affette da queste disturbo e a costruire degli efficaci sistemi di supporto per se stesse.

Il testo si concentra soprattutto sull importanza dell alleanza tra gli operatori della salute mentale e le famiglie dei pazienti affetti da DPB, sui vantaggi che tale collaborazione puo portare nella comprensione e nel trattamento di questo disturbo, offrendo nel contempo a tutte le parti coinvolte una grande speranza per il futuro."
