Hey friends. I'm one who has cut people out, ruined progress I've made, and abruptly quit jobs I've worked hard to get, all because I refuse to be misused. But from now on, I'd really like to not throw everything away every time I feel challenged or provoked. I'd really need to learn how to stop myself from reacting so poorly, and ultimately hurting my future self. I am just so tired of starting over, and over again, after every episode.

Have you learned any skills and tricks in therapy that helps you from reacting on impulse? Someone mentioned to visualize an actual stop sign in your head, which seems effective. What are some DBT methods you can teach someone like me?
