Laura Paxton's Borderline and Beyond, A Program of Recovery from Borderline Personality Disorder, created in 1996, has been through many revisions through the years. The best-loved edition has always been the original, and so we have brought it back with all additions and changes removed. Recovery from BPD is presented in a creative manner, using metaphor richly abundant within films, books and folklore. However, the applications are presented concretely enough that a person may easily use this book as a practical manual to develop creative new coping skills that work for them.Laura Paxton's personal story of her journey of diagnosis and recovery are included.
