Borderline personality disorder

musicbiz

Hi all.

Thank you for taking time to read my post.

I have realised over the last few months that I have a lot strong indicators for borderline personality disorder. I do not want to get a formal diagnosis as I feel this will have lots of negative impact on my career, however, I do wish to look into DBT. The problem is, I am finding difficulty gaining entry to a program in Dublin without a formal diagnosis.

I have researched lots online about DBT and I feel it is quite effective.

I have a crisis situation on the horizon (new relationship) and I am getting very tired trying to contain my emotions so I feel I need structured DBT to help me through either outcome.

Any advise is so welcome

Thank you again

There is a lot to be said for mindfulness.
That said, don't be afraid to be your crazy self.

Try st patrick's "living through distress" programme. It's based on DBT, and you don't need a formal diagnosis as far as I know.
