@cykonot Pretty much. 馃槥 it works really well on some things, but there needs to be a triage step presently missing in the middle: Am I currently undergoing real, actual trauma? Because no therapy is going to resolve it if that's the case. DBT can likewise be fairly insidious in the wrong situation.

But for treating the symptoms of acute, temporary stress, and ongoing reactions to traumas that are truly in the past? CBT works pretty well. I just found it's difficult to find periods like these.

The therapy profession has been coopted by capitalism as a tool to get us to cope just a little longer through our relentless, unnatural trudge of exploitation. #AbuseCulture
