Okay this is exactly where your DBT is used. If you are surrounded by people who aren't helping you and supporting you to make the best choices for yourself....than...you need to tell yourself...they are thinking of themselves, and not me. I want to be on meds. If they can't support that...then that's their problem...not mine. I want to live, and if they aren't going to help me live...then they are not the 'safe' people I need in my life right now. You are the one who needs care. Not them. You are the patient...you need to make your own decisions...as you're the one who gets to live with the consequences....no?
