Quintal-
it sounds like your knowledge of BPD is very thorough- so you've probably read these two already, but I thought I'd mention them for anyone else who is interested..."Lost in the Mirror: an Inside Look at Borderline Personality Disorder" by Richard Moskovitz M.D.
and the one I think is the best, because it's written by someone who actually experienced it, rather than by a doctor or therapist-
"Get me Out of Here: My Recovery from Borderline Personality Disorder" by Rachel Reiland.
Rachel is an exceptional author, and I found her book very helpful... I couldn't put it down. All the way through it I kept thinking- "that's just like how I am!" It was my first introduction to BPD, and it was certainly an eye-opener- now I understand a lot of my own reactions and behaviours, (not that I'm any closer to knowing how to handle it- but I've got a few glimmers of insight now... at least that's something, I suppose. :-)

PS. Sorry, I don't know how to make those titles into links like you did.
