I've been in DBT for a year and some change now and it helps, but not a ton. It's mostly situational that I'm feeling so crappy. So I need the skills and the support from my therapist. But my parents are broke and I can't afford to go. And now things are getting hard again and I don't know what to do. I haven't been formally diagnosed because I manipulate everyone into thinking the problem is a certain way. I don't know how to explain it. No one knows about the way my mind is actually working.
