You put that very well, maranara!
I've been in DBT, myself, for a couple of years. But, I haven't consistently practiced the techniques throughout. And that has had a huge effect on my perspective towards life and "woe is me!" I've been back into DBT for several months now, but the leaders are different this time and they run things a lot more by the book, which has taken a lot of getting used to.
I am trying hard to keep up with regular assignments, and reaching out to others when I need a hand, but some times are still harder than others. Thankfully, we still have the Distress Tolerance skills to fall back onto during very difficult times in our lives!
