This is the third title in our successful ""Borderline Personality Disorder Awareness Series"" for people who struggle with the disorder and their families (2015 and 2018)

This book follows in the tradition of the top-selling Big Book of Alcoholics Anonymous and other similar Big Books for addictions and disorders

The author, who was diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder and has been in recovery many years, writes from first-person perspective of one who has struggled and recovered, instead of the typical ""written by psychiatrists/psychologists"" perspective.

The author has a 6,000+ YouTube following (Recovery Mum) where she has more than 250 videos on Borderline Personality Disorder and she actively communicates with her followers from all points of the globe.

The author will actively promote the book through her YouTube channel; through www.bpdhouse.com, a site for those affected with Borderline Personality Disorder; through speaking events; and through a planned podcast on the disorder.

Strong potential in mental health/psychology sections of any bookstore when placed next to other books on Borderline Personality Disorder, because it provides an insider's look at the diagnostic criteria of the disorder and how to recover from it.

Shehrina Rooney founded the YouTube channel Recovery Mum, with more than 10,000 subscribers, in 2015 and co-founded The BPDTribe.com website in 2017. She was diagnosed with borderline personality disorder (BPD) at age 21, after struggling for more than half her life with fear of abandonment, self-hatred, anger, and eventually addiction. Although dialectical behavior therapy helped, her “dark years” continued into motherhood and through a divorce. Attending 12-step meetings, she realized peer support could work for BPD, too. Today, she dedicates her life to encouraging others who face the same struggles. She is grateful to have the skills to calm her emotions and be a wonderful mum.
