DBT and mindfulness has changed my life for the better and has even given me hope that I can live a normal life.

However I talk to a lot of people who say it doesn't work for them. This confuses and frustrates me.

You see I have been in three DBT groups. The first two where no help at all. It wasn't until I met a man who actively practice mindfulness and truly understands it, that I was finally able to grasp the concept

So I'm confused as to why more teachers don't seem to understand what they are teaching, and I'm frustrated because I find the whole thing quite sad. I know I was lucky to find someone to teach me who fit well with me. But it shouldn't be like that. Everyone should have what I have period.

That's why I want to get better so I can get certified to teach mindfulness and DBT.

Anyways I got a little side tracked there but my point is what do you think of this? Do you agree that a lot of DBT teachers don't know what they teach it is that just my perspective?

Also if anyone has trouble understanding anything DBT related, pm me and I'll do my best to explain my understanding of it. Just remember I'm a peer and not a certified teacher. I'll do my best to help but I can explain it as i see it.
