I like looking at and figuring out this stuff. It helps me see "oh, hey, this is a BPD thing," or "oh yeah, I do that, probably not the healthiest thing, and I can work to unlearn that and replace it with something else." Not sure how helpful it's going to be in the long run in terms of thinking/feeling/behaving in a more tolerable manner, but we'll see. Doing DBT atm in therapy too and practicing my skills as I'm taught.
I have that same workbook, it’s really good. I also have another DBT book by the same publisher new harbinger , called The Dialectical Behavior therapy workbook which is also really good. I printed out the accompanying worksheets that go with it since I got them as ebooks. You can find the printable stuff on new harbingers website. I like that I can make as many copies of the different worksheets as I like so I can do them over and over again
