If your therapist isn't giving you skills, its time to move on and find a therapist who will help you with skill building. Just talking doesn't do much of anything beyond the initial relief of unburdening.

Over the years I have had some good ts teach me some skills that were very helpful. But this time around (and due to my diagnosis) I'm all about changing the way I exist inside. I still use those same old skills, they still work well and all that. But for me, for now, t is about changing my reactions to triggers so that I am not constantly working at keeping sane and relatively normal acting. The skills just weren't enough.
