Biography
In addition to Stop Walking on Eggshells, Randi Kreger is the author of The Stop Walking on Eggshells Workbook (New Harbinger, 2002) and The Essential Family Member Guide to Borderline Personality Disorder: New Tools and Techniques to Stop Walking on Eggshells (Hazelden Publishing, 2008).
Kreger's website, BPDCentral.com, is one of the longest-established, popular, and largest sites about BPD on the Internet. BPDCentral is the home of her "Welcome to Oz" online support community, a group she founded in 1995. The community is home to some 16,000 family members who gather in 15 different lists, or "neighborhoods," depending upon the type of relationship or living situation they have with someone with BPD.
Kreger was also instrumental in the formation of the Personality Disorders Awareness Network (PDAN), a not-for-profit organization. She speaks and gives workshops about BPD internationally.

Could be a Game Changerby SarahKR

July 05, 2009: As a stepmother trying to support my husband in effectively addressing the co-tangled state of his relationship with his teenage daughter and ex-wife (who has bpd), I was deeply moved, energized, and encouraged by the "dead on" information contained within "Walking on Eggshells".
My husband and I have become more educated through some of the extremely accurate (and scary)insights and projections of how dependent children may/will be negatively affected by a mother who has bpd presented in this text. Some of this medically-based data will help in court cases when the non-bpd parent appeals to a family court judge to remove a child from the custody of the bpd parent.For anyone who has a dependent child within the clasps of a bdp parent, this is a MUST read to learn more about the bpd's MO and harmful behaviors towards the child, some useful techniques on how to help the child cope, but, as importantly, the crucial imperative to physically remove the child from the bpd's control and influence. I highly recommend this book to parents, teenage children and older, and anyone who has a bpd in their life.Very helpfulby Anonymous

April 13, 2009: I haven't finished this book yet, but so far it is very informative. It explains the many mood swings, etc. that I have been living with for so many years. It has made me realize that the person with BPD has the issues, not me. I can't wait to finish the book!
