Dialectical Behavior Therapy: - Using DBT to regain control of your emotions and your life, everything you should know about treating depression. Re

By Brandon Travis

Dialectical behavioral therapy or DBT is based on a dialectical view of the world.

The dialectical perspective supports different aspects of the nature of reality and human behavior. The dialectic method supports as first aspect the fundamental interrelation and unity of reality, implying that the analysis of the single parts of a system is limited if they are not inserted in specific contexts, in which the behavior of individuals, and individuals in the group, are expressed.

Dialectical behavior therapy has offered much in the realm of therapies. Dr. Linehan has saved thousands of lives with her innovative work. Borderline personality disorder is not being "crazy" or "unhinged." It's simply mental illness. It includes many other mental illnesses as facets of it. Because of that, it only makes sense that an effective therapy would include many types of therapy and self-reflection.

Mindfulness is probably the most important aspect of DBT because we have been trained not to be mindful. We're like ants, scurrying around - hurry, hurry, hurry, but going nowhere.

Mindfulness forces you to focus on the present. Ask yourself, "Am I treading water? Am I at the bottom of a rung I want to be on or the middle of one I don't?" When you choose mindfulness, you look at your life for a moment.

Your questions aren't all going to be answered in one moment of mindfulness. It's something that must be practiced every day. DBT is an excellent medium for learning skills of mindfulness and interpersonal relationships. When therapy is complete, you've acquired an outstanding toolkit of skills to reach for in any situation.

This book gives a comprehensive guide on the following:
