Stop Walking on Eggshells

This book explains both borderline personality and narcissism really well using real life snippets as well as clinical understanding. A must read if you suspect you are dealing with a borderline person. It saves a lot of heartache to know you are not the problem and gives good suggestions on how to set boundaries.

Excellent book with ideas and solutions. I also just loved the personal stories.

This book was an absolute godsend. It put names to the behaviors, and hurts, I experienced from my loved ones. Because of it, I felt like I was not alone in the emotional abuse I experienced, and that I too could overcome and get out of a toxic relationship. I recommend the audio book too, as read by the author. The author actually adds additional insights that are not on the written page. Keep in mind though, that there is a quiz in the book that is harder to do from the audio version. - I recommend you listen and read it together at the same time. Depending on when, and if, you read this, there might be a few cultural references that may be out of date; but the behavioral analysis, and psychological insights are timeless.

The book was interesting but definitely about more extreme cases of BPD. It would be an excellent book for someone dealing with a loved one that has severe BPD.

This book has been incredibly helpful in understanding difficult behaviors and learning how to set healthy boundaries. When dealing with a challenging family member, it reminds you that you can care about someone without letting the chaos take over your life. A great read for anyone who feels like they’re constantly trying to keep the peace and needs tools to protect their own sanity.

Stop Walking on Eggshells offers exceptional insight into the complex dynamics of narcissism and mental health. Intensely researched and thoughtfully written, it opens a window into the victim-narcissist relationship. This book not only deepens understanding of human behavior, but also provides empowering tools to reclaim personal peace. It helped me immensely. Stories are real and heartfelt.

Great book! Way better than my ex’s book. (my ex has unconventional BPD as described in this book). Reading this book helped me see how my exes book was nothing but gaslighting.

Amazing book. The author is incredibly insightful. Really teaches you how to deal with difficult situations and people.

Just what I was looking for

Explica algunas cosas que mas o menos coinciden y explican las cosas que hacia la persona por la que compre este libro (como la mayoria que ha comprado este libro, por alguien). Me hubiese gustado que se profundizara en ciertos temas pero entiendo que para un libro que intenta explicar algo tan complejo, es difícil. Aun asi recomiendo su lectura

beautiful book

Dealing with borderline personality disorder in a loved one is extremely challenging, and this book offers clear, practical guidance rooted in real clinical understanding. As someone who grew up with a parent with BPD, I found the explanations and strategies in this book both validating and genuinely useful. It helped me make sense of years of confusion and gave me tools I could actually apply. One thing worth emphasizing: Stop Walking on Eggshells is not a substitute for a professional diagnosis. If someone suspects BPD in themselves or a loved one, a proper clinical evaluation is essential. The book does a great job highlighting why self-diagnosis—especially from media portrayals—is unreliable and can create more harm than clarity. This resource helped me tremendously alongside therapy, and I believe it can offer the same clarity and support to many others trying to navigate these difficult dynamics.

Great book, so informative, helpful and supportive. Thoroughly recommend this to those this is written for. It is not only the content but the way in way it is written that makes it so spot on.
