Very poignant post, Mouse, and I wholeheatedly agree with what you are saying, but I just have one question:

How?

I know you answered this quesion indirectly, but answer it directly...because that is what I need to know.

I have done DBT. I have practiced it as much as I could (in spite of the fact that it is based on Bhuddist principles) without offending my own spiritual and religious beliefs.

Aside from all that, tell me HOW???
