text: I've been in and out of therapy since I was 6 (I'm now 30) and DBT is the most helpful thing I have ever tried. I am a major advocate for it, I wish it was more widely offered.\nFor me, I always knew something was wrong but didn't know what or why or what to do about it. DBT lays it all out in a way that makes sense. It teaches the skills for being able to make real changes in your life. If you are ready to really face your issues and take a very honest look at yourself, then I highly recommend it. It truly can change your life and significantly reduce suffering. \nThe only negative thing I have heard about it have been due to the individual not liking the way the group was run, which had more to do with the people running it than the content. \n\nI would say, if you can get into DBT, do it. Try it. You have nothing to lose and so much to gain. It is very worth the effort. I wish I had been introduced to it at 18, I think my life would have gone a lot differently if I had.\n\nFor more info try these websites (the first will let you read what other people who have tried it have to say about it, the second will show you what it actually is) :\n\nwww.remedyfind.com\nwww.dbtselfhelp.com\n\nIf you want any more information on bpd or dbt, feel free to email me.
