Struggling
Hello! I was diagnosed with DBP and has some PTSD as well, after years of abuse. My parents are awesome but we're never nurturing and they didn't talk to me about things so I have never learned how to heal or even know how to start. I've used unhealthy methods to try to find "comfort" but now I am ready to figure out how to move forward. Going to therapy isn't out of the question, however it's not an option right now so here I am. My anxiety has been so horrible and my mental health is really slipping.. Any type of advice would be wonderful. Thank you in advance.
Ugh, my typos lol
Hi @DarkerNight,
Welcome to our sub-community and thank you for sharing your experiences. A diagnosis can be difficult and it's great that you are open to the idea of therapy, even if it isn't accessible to you at the moment. We share some DBT tips here in the threads and some resources too to help you cope in the meantime
Well done for reaching out :)
