Through daily readings and affirmations, you will be led into an inspirational, experiential journey as seen through the eyes of a partner to someone suffering with Borderline Personality Disorder. Lynn Melville. 'Breaking Free from Boomerang Love' describes the on-again, off-again behavior some of us have engaged in with our love relationships. Our heads have known all along what we needed to do . 'Boomerang Love' describes how the partner of the Borderline repeatedly leaves the relationship, only to return to it again and again, desperately trying to fix an illness of which they don't even know the name -- and which only the Borderline can fix, with professional mental health help. Our feelings are what lead us to the actions we need to take. In reading 'Boomerang Love', you'll: * Re-feel and finish grieving your own pain * Laugh and then watch your denial disappear *Achieve a new strength to stand up for yourself *Re-connect and reach for guidance from the God of your understanding. We leave the painful relationship then go back to it then leave it then go back to it
