Talking to a Loved One with Borderline Personality Disorder

Communication Skills to Manage Intense Emotions, Set Boundaries, and Reduce Conflict

By: Jerold J. Kreisman

In this compassionate guide, Jerold Kreisman—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, Talking to a Loved One with Borderline Personality Disorder 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.

Necessary Lives

By: Jerold Kreisman

As a husband, William Cooper is trying to understand how to save his failing marriage. As a psychiatrist, Dr. Cooper is trying to understand how to save his patients. After his wife is killed in a mysterious hit-and-run accident, Cooper diverts his self-questioning to his patients. How does mental illness transform into mental wellness? Cooper’s encounters with professional colleagues only uncovers their own struggles. He decides to interview patients from his distant past, who completed treatment, in order to determine the “curative” elements of their therapy. Cooper becomes romantically involved with one ex-patient, Claire Duval, an attorney in the municipal prosecutor’s office. Claire uncovers evidence of racketeering among police, business leaders, and politicians that may rise to the level of the Governor—her step-father. After her boss is murdered and she is threatened, Claire disappears. Cooper’s attempt to find and help her endangers them both and leads him to uncover dark secrets that solve the mystery of his wife’s death.
