Note that the BPD book is literally over 200 pages @_@

Uhhhh this website has a lot of pdfs! https://www.mhanational.org/self-help-tools

Some other stuff;

5 steps to mental wellbeing: https://www.nhs.uk/mental-health/self-help/guides-tools-and-activities/five-steps-to-mental-wellbeing/

uh… This is something I've never seen online before, but personally sometimes when my feelings are too much or I have negative ones, I'll write down the feels I want to leave on a piece of paper and rip it up and throw it away! Burning probably also works and might even be better.

It's that time again! I've hoarded more self help resources!

Back when I was in therapy I actually was reading the DSM since it was on the table but I mean. Primarily coz I was with my therapist there so we could use the tools available to her while looking at my symptoms etc (and also I just have a weird fascination with psychology… idk why)
Personally since I have BPD I often used this one in particular https://www.pdfdrive.com/mindfulness-for-borderline-personality-disorder-relieve-your-suffering-using-the-core-skill-of-dialectical-behavior-therapy-e185962974.html (but it's also another…. 200+ page book…. so like…. y'know.)
Based on that one thing is the "Do Something Different Each Day" thing where I'll just. like. walk to the park or go somewhere I haven't in over a year! Recently a cafe opened near me so I walked there today which is different! (I need to do more stuff tho ahaha)

unironically a very useful thread, thank you menheranon

I've returned with more self help resources anons (I was hoarding them again but only found a few currently)

(This one is why I started hoarding them again, I was trying to help my boyfriend deal with his anger management issues. he said " does is help me come down easier, it doesn’t stop me from going off" so ur mileage may vary but honestly ymmv on literally all the shit I post anyway)
