Hello, I am reading the book Girl Interrupted and have to write a review on it, I know that the main person in the book had borderline personality, but I need to find how the treatment an or disorder affected the family, and I can't find the answer to that question. For the second question for treatment I have that Susanna was in a mental facility what else should i put down for treatment, thanks

Goodness. Susanna was nuts, detached from reality, had difficulty forming and maintaining relationships. How would it be to have a teen in the house like that?

Susanna describes her doubts about mental treatment, whether they are treating the brain or the mind. She underwent depersonalization. What do those imply about her treatement?

Dont fret to much about not seeing the answers to these two questions: Susanna had difficulty seeing what was happening around her also. At least the way most of us see things.

This is a good read for those who often if they have strayed over the line. Most of us have one time or the other.

You can find the information you desire more quickly, if you use appropriate key words to do your own search. Also see http://hanlib.sou.edu/searchtools/. Try "borderline personality treatment".

As for the possible effects on the family, consider how you would feel if your sister, daughter had this disorder.

I hope this helps a little more. thanks for asking.
