    I agree with her approach. My experience as a therapist, now retired, demonstrated that it is not an organic process. That many clients are aware of the why but are totally stuck in terms of the how to move into change

    I could say DBT is one of the things that truly saved my life. I've been practising it full-time now for the past 1,5 year. I think it's just amazing, astonishing that one can create such a complex, smart form of therapy. It's just incredible. I'm beyond grateful.

      @@georgegray2712 actually there is a hospital in my hometown that gives the training. It was always with a group of 10 people or so. I really feel that you need that connection with the other participants, you learn so much from that, it makes an enormous difference.
      In this program, an individual coach is also a big part of the training.
      I don't think i could do the training properly just by learning it from a book.

    When Dr Linehan said: 'half of my patients when I ask them how they feel their answer is I have no idea, like looking at a fog' - WOW finally someone put in words what me and many others (diagnosed BPD) pretty much feel like every day.. I wouldn't say it's true 'depression' at first, but unfortunately quickly becomes that.

    Thank you so very much for your work! I use a DBT Workbook for PTSD recovery, and today was hit by 5 triggers within a short time. That profound dread hit, and I cuddled up and had a chocolate, took some me deep breaths and got writing. Each trigger, one at a time, with its related cause and background vulnerability. I recalled a then & now categorizing somewhere, and specified that each trigger was from a trauma back then, but now I actually had far more resources in each area, and this calmed me down. Last, I made a list of the 2 problem areas in the now category...and got to work on one today. The difference between where this would have left me, and where I was now able to take myself today is astounding!

    I am 53. I was originally diagnosed sometime around 1978 with "severe anxiety neurosis" and this one page report could have been out of the BPD playbook. But I was 10. This was even before the DSM 3 came out in 1980. I was then, by 1980 diagnosed with ADHD and put on Ritaline nad Dexedrine. The next decades, I struggled ALOT but no one mentioned "emotional dysregulation" or BPD . I get that BPD is stigmatizing.. but I always felt that something BIG was missing with my diagnoses... in me.. and it was that piece... and now, I feel like too late.. I am broke, barely any money for therapy etc.. so many bridges burned, "friends" lost, opportunities lost... and I never had any of these skills . Just "positive thinking" and other CBT stuff. I had spiritual communities that I was engaged in personal transformation dump me and reject me. No one wants to put up with me. and I am childless, and in a challenging relationship... I don't know if I am going to make it.. I need outside help and there is none really to be had. I have to try and again pick myself up and figure out how to fix all these problems. ..... and I have no money to do it.

      It is a long way, but I am sure that you can help yourself. In the endeffect it is about emotional learning and learning how to unconcitionally love and accept and feel yourself. Just imagine, you were your own child you love the best you can. Start loving and learning with this child. Be your own good mother. And if you fail, start anew right after that not blaiming yourself for failing. Be patient. Go for it.Good luck!

      There is a two-year waiting list for the DBT group where I live in Ontario. Very very poor mental health services in Ontario. Always a ridiculous limit on how many times you can see a social worker (like 3 to 6 times), and one-time consult visits with psychiatrists. Mental health services in Ontario are a disgrace, and lack of access causes incalculable suffering.

    Being someone who has BPD... and if anyone who has the condition reads this... I would just like to try and balance this out a little... I get what the Dr is saying... but I feel this casts a very negative look on it... that the lows are lows and only lows... and yes... the lows are the stuff of nightmares... but the highs... the highs are out of this world... when you do have moments of love and happiness... and ecstasy... there's nothing like it.... I'm not saying the Dr is wrong or anything... I just feel this is focusing on the negatives and the negatives only... when I've found one thing I need... and other people I know who have BPD is a more balanced stable approach... it sounds cliché... but it's not all bad and you're not alone... but then what do I know?

  • @Luis-qr8gc
    @Luis-qr8gc 29 дней назад

    Someone please advise me.
    I seem to be, in my opinion, on the opposite end of the spectrum of how I handle my emotions. They are so easy for me to turn off or to ignore and thereby stop feeling them. I intellectualise often in order to stop feeling angry when I am triggered. I distract myself from some feelings when I do not want to feel them. When I feel a certain strong emotion, such as anger, and I feel it in my body, acting on it still feels very much within my control; so much so, that I am really convinced that either my reasoning mind will convince me to do otherwise, or I will act out my anger so as to release it; but that I get to choose which one of these options I will make; it isn't a total control; sometimes I do snap. I often think about how I can improve my life and what I can do concerning non-self-improvements and self-improvement topics. I am not a very spontaneous or artistic person, though I do appreciate the beauty of the natural world and human-art.
    One of the thoughts I have had multiple times in my life is that it is better to be the way I am, or to be as I aspire to be; which is very much in control of my emotions, than to struggle to control one's emotions. So often people with less emotional self-control acts out in a way that makes their life more difficult or undesirable for them. Their actions seem to be the opposite of wise actions. How can they be wise if they do not act wisely?
    I desire for other people to have a very strong emotional self-control too. I am convinced that many people would suffer much less in life if they could be a little more easy-going and be able to control or shut down some of their emotions such as anger and self-pity (along with the action of crying) or find a different way of experiencing them without lashing out at people around them or complaining to others about effects that resulted from their lashing out at others.
    I do not feel superior to people who are emotionally unstable. I do not feel that I am better than them or worth more than them as a person. I only believe that it would be better if they were more like me concerning emotional self-control. Someone tell me if I am mistaken, and why, if I am mistaken.

      I don't think DBT is in anyway a panacea. If you can find anyone versed in Mentalization Based Therapy, I think it is very effective in dealing with the interpersonal challenges BPD presents. As well, if you can find a group or treaters with whom you really connect and who are offering up ideas that interest you and inspire you to explore... anyway, that might be a good litmus test for a direction to take.
      For me, DBT was useful in understanding the architecture of the diagnosis, but other modalities (like mentalization based therapy) really dug deeper for me into the challenge of deconstructing my own thoughts and feelings (as well as being curious about other peoples') experience so that I could begin to redirect my behavior.
