Lynn Melville

Lynn Melville's personal mission is to raise awareness of Borderline Personality Disorder and 'boomerang love' -- a love that draws us back into abusive relationships over and over.

In the Red Flags section of Lynn's web site -- www.boomeranglove.com -- she presents a list of over 80 behaviors that indicate the possible presence of the Borderline disorder

Lynn believes that repeatedly leaving and then returning to a painful relationship with another person is a sign that something is seriously wrong --we just haven't known what that 'something' is.

Lynn states that our culture is basically 'color blind' to the behaviors and symptoms of narcissistic Borderline Personality Disorder. Few know that there is an actual name and mental health diagnosis for the hurtful behavior that Borderlines inflict on their partners in relationships.

With the awareness that Lynn's books generate about Borderline Personality Disorder, she hopes that victims and families will seek professional mental health assistance sooner, both for themselves and the Borderline they love.

Lynn has served as executive director of the Mental Health Association in her home town. Working with an all-volunteer board and community volunteers, she worked to educate people about mental health issues. She currnently resides in the Central Coast region of California.
