It recounts her long experience with borderline personality disorder, including early self-destructive behavior, addiction, depression, post-traumatic stress, self-harm, and unstable relationships, before a later diagnosis helped name the pattern she had been living through. The book is not a clinical manual, but it is closely connected to clinical practice because it describes recovery through Dialectical Behavior Therapy, a treatment strongly associated with borderline personality disorder. Van Gelder also frames recovery through Buddhist spirituality, especially mindfulness, compassion, and disciplined attention to emotional states. Its purpose is both personal and educational: to show the internal experience of a disorder often viewed from the outside and to present recovery as difficult, uneven, and possible through structured skills, community, and spiritual practice.
