Reposted and edited this, because we have to be 100% accurate when people of color make a glip about cis white women.

DBT is useless…well, like obviously not all of it but if you look at the research that validates it, it’s more likely that this is a therapy for upper-middle class white women with emotional problems, rather than being a therapy for people who have emotional disregulation and live closer to the « margins » of society aka the people feeling the brunt of the illness, plagued with valid reasons to kill oneself. Aka if your BPD is related to you being the rent bitch of capitalism (like many of my BPD people of color fam), you’re out of luck.

This is important because it begs the discussion of who among us are getting served and who among us are having their time wasted being given iatrogenic treatment. So please don’t callously remove this, moderators.
