Six percent of people in North America will develop borderline personality disorder (BPD) in their lifetime, and about half of those will also have alcohol use disorder (AUD). This interplay of symptoms leads to greater treatment challenges and increases the risk of death by suicide, but an integrated treatment approach is lacking.
Good Psychiatric Management for Borderline Personality Disorder and Alcohol Use Disorder fills that gap. Leaning on general psychiatric principles with which most clinicians are already familiar and the most up-to-date standards of care for both BPD and AUD, the authors clearly articulate quality, evidence-based treatment interventions. Readers will discover how to establish a treatment framework, manage suicidality and nonsuicidal self-harm, navigate pharmacotherapeutic approaches, implement multimodal treatments, and choose appropriate levels of care for all situations.
With particular attention given to areas of potential synergy in approach, this handbook provides clinical logic for addressing complex, real-world cases and improving patient outcomes.
