I've had lots of therapy and no one mentioned DBT though they knew I had BPD. To be fair, I think DBT may not have been invented then, in the 80's and 90's. When did it start? I guess I can look that up myself.
My former T knew about it but told me she didn't think it would help me!! Of all the nerve. I don't know why I listened to her. I did try the online group a few years or more ago but I needed more help to push me to do the exercises.
So, I don't know WHY Ts don't recommend it all of the time, either!!
I really like my DBT group that I started last month.
I also find that yoga helps me a lot!!! Also meditation/breathing that my T taught me.
Vy, I hope doing it yourself helps you!
Post more in the support group where I "met" you, too!
