Hi Everyone-  


Sorry for the delay in getting the second post up.  I will make every effort to post daily from here on out.  


Just a quick head's up... If you have any issues with what is posted in the DBT Support Group threads, please message me directly rather than the /BPD mods.    


For day 2, we will look at [General Handout 4](https://theinsightclinic.ca/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/GENERAL-HANDOUT-4.pdf) and [General Handout 5](https://theinsightclinic.ca/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Slide-12-GENERAL-HANDOUT-5.pdf) from the [DBT Skills Training Workbook](https://survivingcptsd.files.wordpress.com/2018/01/dbt_skills_training_handouts_and_worksheets_-_linehan_marsha_srg_.pdf) by Marsha Linehan.  


I will start out with a "prompt" response (my own reaction) to the premises of DBT laid out in Handout 4.  Even though the language is fairly clear in both handouts, the concepts they describe are fairly complex.  For me, personally, they can be hard to internalize and intuitively understand.
