educated me

I just started this 3 months ago after being dianosed with borderline. It WORKS!!! I can't reccommend it enough.

Works if you allow your mind to retain the techniques taught.

this therapy and class is very new to me I will come back here and tell you more in 8 weeks

Extremely helpful! I am more accepting and understanding of myself and my illness, handle my relationships with others more skillfully, and make decisions more "effectively." DBT just gives you a great framework for understanding and navigating the world.

self-taught and still learning. the groups were too rigid.

The last time I was in therapy, I couldn't get out of bed without a plan for what to do and every step was followed to a tee. The therapist retired. I got joked that I wore him out. I even started to change my wardrobe on my own and started looking better outwardly. I became stronger

Cleaning has helped newly dried sheets are nice. Writing helps. I do have to say that concentrating on breathing doesnt work for me. The more I concentrate on my breathing the more out of breath I feel. So I dont do that one too often. Sometimes it helps if Im trying to slow my heart rate down. But I try to pep talk myself through it.

Well see how well it works!

Loved it. I don't remember a lot the specifics and I really wish I could go again for the refresher but it still helps even though I don't remember everything.
