Description
Evidence-based dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) skills for surviving and thriving when a family member has BPD.
If you have a family member who struggles with borderline personality disorder (BPD), you’re probably familiar with the concept of walking on eggshells. Your loved one may experience intense emotions that are difficult to predict, leaving you feeling stressed, drained, and on edge. So, how can you support your loved one while also taking care of and protecting yourself?
From a leading DBT expert and the author of Stop Walking on Eggshells—which has helped nearly a million people successfully navigate their relationships with BPD sufferers—this workbook harnesses the power of DBT, the gold standard for treating BPD. You’ll learn to better understand and empathise with your loved one’s internal experiences and symptoms, and discover strategies to help you manage your own emotions and stay calm in stressful or upsetting situations. You’ll also discover tools for improving communication, tips for boosting self-compassion, and skills for setting healthy boundaries with your loved one.
If you’re ready to stop walking on eggshells and start minimising conflict, connecting with empathy, and making sure your own needs are met, this workbook can help you get started—step by step.
