I recently was suggested dbt by my therapist. I wasn’t aware of what it was, but she wanted me to do my own research on it. After a day of reading about dbt and bpd, and seeing that I check so many “boxes” I broke down. I feel as though she was trying to be gentle and not give me a diagnosis right away, but let me lean in gently? I could be wrong, but I’m having a hard time with my emotions right now and she is out of office for the next week and a half. Im not trying to overstep any boundaries so please lemme know if I need to remove it. I just have so many questions and fears and no one to really look to right now. There is a small sliver of hope in me though that I found a community that understands how my brain/body function. I’ve been dealing with this alone for almost 30 years and for the first time in my life I have some hope that knowledge on this can help me. Thanks for listening. 🖤
