Good evening fellow BPD redditors! 

Apologies for how long winded the post will be, there is a minimum character length so I will just waffle I guess. 

I realised whilst reading the comments of another thread in r/BPD that some people on this sub may not have access to DBT therapy. 

I saw that in some cases people can’t access DBT because it’s not covered by insurance, issues with affordability or general inability to access the right services. 

I’m from the UK and am currently enrolled in a group DBT therapy course via my district’s NHS mental health practice. I was referred there for diagnosis via my GP last year and they have supported me since I’m the form of the group sessions that take place once a week. The entire course is is 24 weeks in total front start to finish, with weekly 90min sessions via Zoom.

The main content that the entire course is focused around is the DBT handbook. It contains all the necessary content including skills practices. 

If anyone would like an electronic copy for free I would be more than happy to share 

I’m not sure the best method to do that so open to suggestions. 

Good luck out there!
