""A concise and practical guide to help family and friends deal with a deeply troubled loved one. An unparalleled tool in a very limited toolbox!"" --Dr. Wendy Elias Wolfson, board-certified psychiatrist ""After reading books written by Dr. Lobel, including his latest one, When a Loved One Has Borderline Personality Disorder, I've gained the clarity I had been missing. This latest book is an incredible guide, almost like a pocket-therapist in some aspects for me. A truly remarkable accomplishment for which there can never be enough thanks."" --J. Marlow ""For anyone who has found themself in the often frightening, always frustrating foreign land that is a borderline relationship, here is the ultimate guidebook. Using language that is understandable and engaging, Dr. Lobel provides practical tools, realistic talking points, and 'Key Takeaways' that together create a readable road map for even the most intrepid traveler. I will be recommending this gem to many of my clients."" --Tracey Masella, licensed clinical social worker ""Unlike most clinicians, Daniel Lobel understands that the majority of people with BPD do not think they have anything wrong with them and therefore do not seek treatment. When this is the case, family members need specific information and tools that are hard to find. In this book, Lobel takes these family members from helplessness to hopefulness."" --Randi Kreger, author, Stop walking on eggshells, stop walking on eggshells for parents, The Essential Family Guide to borderline personality disorder
