Both of your analysis may be close to hitting home.. It doesn't answer the question, though. I am just wondering if there have been other therapies out there that have helped people with BPD. Regardless of the reasons for my avoidance/panic around DBT it doesn't seem to sit well with me.. So, why not explore other options as well?

I generally already know when I am avoiding things, and don't need somebody to point out to me.
