Dr
Irene's Verbal Abuse (Site)
Excellent, user-friendly site that explores all aspects of
verbal abuse. Has dozens of well- written pages on abuse, boundaries,
co-dependency, etc. I wish I had had this site as a resource back
when I was involved with my BP. This, along with Patricia Evans'
book "The Verbally Abusive Relationship," should be
required reading for *anyone* who suspects that they are in such
a relationship.
Anonymous
Account of the Borderline Personality Disorder
By far the best account I have ever read of BPD. The anonymous
author hypothesizes that BPD is the result of the individual's
somehow being "trapped" at the developmental stage of
a child. This article really left an impression on me. It made
a lot of what I had experienced easier to understand. Written
in a non-judgemental tone, the article portrays the essential
"humanness" of the borderline individual.
