I looked over on online DBT course but it was outrageously expensive so i just bought an inexpensive DBT Kindle book off Amazon. You don't have to have a Kindle to read Kindle books. I use my iPhone. It's so delightful to have my whole personal library on me at all times! So convenient! And this is working out swimmingly because it's a workbook so i write in my notes app on my phone and get to practice my thumb-typing. Hopefully i'll get super fast like i see all the youngsters hammering out texts on the bus.

The thing is tho: i don't really have overwhelming emotions too often. I've withdrawn from life so much that i'm insulated from them. Also, my main destructive behavior of overeating does not occur in response to overwhelming emotions. I just feel like: "Hmm, wouldn't some chips taste good right now?" And then i have them.

Well, i'm sure i'll learn something from the book. I've just barely started it.

Does anyone like my new avatars? I had to update them as my hair is longer. I use my memojis from my iPhone. I'm thrilled with them! Such fun!

Hugs to all who struggle!
