BPD Book Club - Chapter 4 Part 2 (feat Talon)
05/11/23 • 64 min
Welcome to your newest BBB mini-series!! Every Wednesday you will get a bonus episode until we've read EVERY SINGLE CHAPTER of the book Stop Walking on Eggshells that was republished as a 2nd edition in 2010.
Leave us a voicemail about your thoughts at: boldbeautifulborderline.com
Here's the deal - we are reviewing this book from a critical lens, but we only have so much ability to be critical as we're reading it from the perspective of someone having BPD and the partner of someone with BPD. These are our opinions and we hope to teach others how stigmatizing language damages us and the people who love those of us with BPD. We also point out some of the benefits of this book. This mini-series is NOT a shit on this book, nor is it a recommendation of this book. It is simply a critical review of a book that most people who have a BPD family member, partner, loved one, or friend has been recommended.
We are reviewing this book as consistent with Copyright Fair Use law:
1. We are not reading it in its entirety
2. We have purchased the book we are reading from
3. We are using it for educational purposes
4. We are using it for non-commercial purposes
5. We are reviewing a previous edition of the book that does not harm the current edition of the book or the future market of the book
6. We are using this work for “transformative” uses. Transformative uses are those that add something new, with a further purpose or different character, and do not substitute for the original use of the work.
This week we are reviewing the first chapter of this book. Each week we will review one full chapter until the book is complete. Enjoy!

Next Episode

Living through loss (feat. Emily)
Emily, our brand new Super Feelers Club co-facilitator, lost her best friend last year and has been on a grief journey like nothing she has ever experienced before. Grief and loss is always hard, but the intensity of emotions and suicidality that come with BPD make for an even harder journey. Emily shares with us what losing the "Christina to her Meredith" has been like for her and how she has stayed alive despite not always wanting to.
Trigger warning: grief, death, suicidal thoughts
This episode featured Laurie Edmundson who previously was a co-host of this project. You can find her at https://www.laurieedmundson.com and on IG @laurieanned where you will find ways to access The Super Feelers Club and other projects she works on.
