[Here](https://www.mcleanhospital.org/essential/mbt) is a link that I found that explained it to me.

I found this quote interesting

&gt; the creators of MBT, based this form of therapy on the idea that borderline personality disorder is primarily a disorder of mentalization 

And I think that it is true that when I am emotionally dysregulated, I feel like I am unable to understand what I am feeling, it's just general dysphoria,  and I am unable to accurately understand the experience of others, and so I may make them feel very uncomfortable and be extremely confused as to why at the time, but then later realize that I was acting inappropriately.

Does anyone have any positive or negative experience to share, or insights?
