Changing of the Poll: Non-BPD Books
Today, I have decided to rotate the poll. The last question I asked is about books that non-BPD people have read. Not surprisingly, the largest slice of the responders said “Stop Walking on Eggshells” as the book that they read (among others). Here is the data, normalized across the “choose all that apply” spectrum. If you’d like to see it by responders, see the “polls” link or poll archive. OK, here’s a better representation of the percentage of the responders, rather than the % by total answers: I also have started a new poll about self-injury. I am quite interested in the stats on self-injury because I have been told…

Results from my latest poll
Last year, I launched a poll asking my readers how they are related to a person with BPD. The choices were: Self Spouse Non-Spouse Partner Child Parent Sibling or Other Relation Friend Ex-Partner or Ex-Spouse I got 141 votes from 102 voters (you could choose more than one relationship if you had more than one). I have now closed that poll and wanted to present the results. I have two graphs that represent the results of that poll. One is a straight results graph: Which shows that the spouse category is the largest at about 22%. However, in the next graph I combined spouse, non-spouse partner and ex-partner (or spouse)…

Updated Stats from Search Engine Keywords
Well, I haven’t updated my stats in a while so I thought it might be interesting to do so. The last 30 days I had the following stats: Celebrities with a PD rose to 53% of the traffic – it’s amazing what people are interested in. BPD General rose to 26% of my traffic. This is due in part to my running a Google AdWords campaign on the term “BPD” to try and get my book, When Hope is Not Enough: a how-to guide for living with and loving someone with Borderline Personality Disorder, into the hands of more people. Coping was about the same as in the past. I…

Fun with Keywords Again
Well, I’ve looked over recent keywords that find my blog and found these to be interesting (with my comment in parenthesis): borderline tough love (it doesn’t work see this post) bpd not wrong (I wonder a BP saying they’re not wrong or a non-bp complaining about it?) bpd impacts on loved ones (big ones! That’s the whole point of the site huh?) how to stop ruminating (It isn’t easy. Mindfulness helps.) dumped out of the blue bpd (yeah, it happens) how to stop a demonic possession (I’m amazed at the number of demonic possession believers out there) here is the last two digits of my social (ok, where is the…
