Kiera Van Gelder wrote a memoir, The Budda and the Borderline,describing her struggle and recovery journey with borderline personality disorder (BPD). Kiera writes beautifully and describes her internal world in vivid detail. Her book is of great value in helping families understand the deep feelings of abandonment that consumers experience as well as the emptiness they struggle with. Consumers too may benefit from her work as reading about Kiera’s experience may help them feel less alone. In addition, books like hers help lift the stigma of the borderline diagnosis.
Kiera’s website (http://www.buddhaandborderline.com/) offers helpful information about BPD as well.
