Dialectical Behaviour Therapy for BPD

[WhatABore]

I have been diagnosed with BPD and CPTSD for quite some time.
Have managed to eventually get a referral for DBT. Has anyone had it with BPD and can tell me if they've found it works or even helps in any way!

i've read the book and it helped A LOT. it kind of gives you tools on how to grasp all the chaos. unfortunately DBT wasn't available as a form of therapy for me.

Thank you!
Luckily I managed to get a referal for it from the GP after years of trying.

I'll have a look into this book as well, thank you

It's worth noting that in order to receive a full programme of DBT, you should be receiving 1 to 1 therapy, group therapy focussing on skills and have access to some form of coaching.
