@junkartist I have not done DBT work, but it sounds intriguing. Remember, we share here what works for us, and also what doesn't. So, I will be very interested to hear what your experiences are. I wonder why your therapist suggested this new-to-you therapy? In my own experience, the success of therapy and work on yourself seems to be in direct ration to how much effort i put into it, and how ready I am to embrace the possible changes.

Will you let us know how you experience it, please?

Cognitive-behavioral therapy or CBT teaches you how your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours influence each other. ... Dialectical behavior therapy or DBT is based on CBT, with greater focus on emotional and social aspects. DBT was developed to help people cope with extreme or unstable emotions and harmful behaviors.( from the internet)

The therapist has recommended DBT therapist because I have had several emotional łows in the last 2 years due to a family conflict.
