I don't even want someone to treat it. I just don't care about it. I know when I'm being emotionally volatile (like right now) I know every time. It's just the way I am and I have bigger more important things to work on. And DBT doesn't help me for ****. Annoying little acronyms and condensing worksheets. Like I have an attachment disorder, not a brain injury.
And I don't have a "personality disorder". My personality is a little sharp to the taste but get over it. I'm not "bordering" on insanity or whatever the hell it's supposed to mean. I'm under control.
