Navigating this blog


I decided to add this page because I realized, that for anyone new here, navigating my blog might be kind of confusing.  For the most part this blog simply follows my life with mental illness, on a daily basis, thats the easy part.  However, I occasionally write a post about a BPD, or other mental illness related topic (or that contain definitions and explanations of different aspects of BPD, and possibly how they relate to my life personally), or a post giving details about a specific time in my past (prior to me starting this blog) or pertaining to my belief system, that is where this page is meant to help.  Below I will include links to the posts about mental illness related topics, and then links to the posts about my past, in the order they occurred in my life (not necessarily the order I posted them), and then blogger awards and challenges.  I hope this is helpful, and I hope you enjoy your visit.

    Have you seen this book? The cover looks terrible!! Here’s the link and description. I’m gonna ask around.

    Based on former FBI Special Agent Joe Navarro’s experience as a criminal profiler and behavior specialist, “How to Spot a Borderline Personality”, provides the average person the tools necessary for identifying and assessing individuals who suffer from Borderline Personality Disorder. This is a must read for anyone who wants to “protect” themselves, their children, or their loved ones from such a personality.

    This short practical guide and checklist includes the 100 behaviors that are closely associated with this prevalent disorder. It is easy to use and intended for the average layperson: you truly don’t have to be a psychiatrist to use this.

    This short booklet will give you insight into this disorder by examining behaviors that may not be recognizable to you at first but have proven over time to be part of the Borderline Personality. Practical, fast, easy to read and simple to understand, this guide sheds light on a disorder that afflicts many with serious consequences for the rest of us.
