Hi everyone,
I am doing my DBT homework for this week and I don't really understand it. Can someone who is familiar with DBT help by giving me an example in your life and possibly explaining it? Give a situation in which you acted dialectically. Give a situation in which you did not act dialectically. Thanks friends |

It's basically asking you to explain a time in your life when you came up with different reasons for an event and contemplating them vs. going with your first thought and running with it.
An example of my own I can give is when "in the past" my husband was late from work and I would automatically assume he was cheating on me and all of my behaviors related to that thought with no exception. "that is when I did NOT act dialectically". On the other hand when I DID act dialectically is when my husband was late from work and I would weigh out options for why like 1. he had extra paperwork after work, 2. He got stuck in traffic, 3. He had to stop off at the store on his way home, etc.. Hope that helps you out some :-) |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
