[quote=Anonymous]DBT PP here. You cannot expect her to knock out every issue one by one with a therapist. DBT requires a change in mindset that allows you to accept that two truths can exist at the same time. Also, you said she blows up at a perceived slight, and blames everyone (namely you) for making her upset. But think of it as if she has lots of issues piling up and she is getting more emotionally dysregulated until finally, one small thing marks everything spill over the edge. It wasn’t that big a thing but she was already close to spilling over, and then bam! The goal should be to not reach that point, but to give her skills to lower her response to all the small slights that pile up so they don’t overflow. It’s great that she’s reflective and insightful and willing to do the work. Definitely read more about DBT. [/quote]
