But this optimistic guide to BPD provides information that will bring newfound hope to those who have this painful disorder, and to their family and friends. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePeople with borderline personality disorder have problems coping with almost everything, and therefore anything can provoke them to impulsive actions, angry outbursts, and self-destructive behaviors. Their personal relationships are simultaneously overly dependent and strained, if not openly hostile, and frequently explosive. Incorporating the latest research and thinking on the disorder, Johns Hopkins psychiatrists Francis Mark Mondimore and Patrick Kelly conceptualize it in an original way. They explain that symptoms are the result of biological and behavioral problems, extremes of temperament, and impaired psychological coping, all of which may have a relationship with traumatic life events. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe authors advocate a therapeutic approach incorporating compassion and optimism in the face of what is often a tumultuous disease. With proper treatment, people with borderline personality disorder can enjoy long remissions and improved quality of life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Francis Mark Mondimore,Patrick Kelly\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1421403137\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781421403137\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Johns Hopkins University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 312\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.30w x 1.10d","brand":"Francis Mark Mondimore","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48088209260799,"sku":"9781421403137","price":50.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ea8cd8e9-8ea4-4109-b28c-651fe044f0a8.jpg?v=1769103663","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/borderline-personality-disorder-francis-mark-mondimore-9781421403137","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
