Randi Kreger, coauthor of Stop Walking on Eggshells: Taking Your Life Back When Someone You Care About Has Borderline Personality Disorder, and the founder of BPDCentral.com, recently wrote a great post on her Psychology Today blog about how to leave a partner who has a personality disorder. Since this is a topic she is well-versed in, and I could not write about this topic any better than she has, I encourage those of you who are considering leaving your partner to go read it for advice.

Leaving a partner with a mental illness is a difficult decision, and can be a challenge to execute, as I had addressed in a two-part blog post earlier this fall. But if you have a partner with a personality disorder, there are extra layers of complexity, which Randi addresses beautifully in her post.

If you are still in the process of learning about personality disorders, and assessing what you should do about your relationship, here is a list of resources that can provide helpful information:

• Making It Work When Your Partner Has BPD
• Resources for Healthy Partners About Mental Illness
• BPD Central.com
• BPD Demystified
