DBT and CPT

[Weens]

Hi,

Have people gone through both dbt and cpt therapy? I am currently in the middle of a 12 week short DBT course and starting the actual long course tomorrow. Then first week in January 21 I am due to start CPT training. I find dbt quite emotionally draining, wondering if others have found a lot of benefit or if cpt will just be a lot of dbt and already done cbt therapy... trying to juggle three lots of therapy and full time work is exhausting!

Dear Weens~

I'm sorry you have to undergo so much in the way of treatment and think asking for other's experience is a wise move. As I have no experience I cannot answer you, though these subjects have come though before in the Forum.

My best suggestion is you read what others have said, and if they have posted recently you can converse with them, if they have not been around for a while you can still at least gain their impressions.

Try using Google to search for two things (copy exactly)

CPR beyondblue forum

and

DBT beyondblue forum

I have checked and both those queries return hits

Good Luck in your search

Hi Weens,

Thank you for your inquisitive and open post.

My best friend went through CBT and has come out a different person! He couldn't recommend it more!

Stick it out! You'll get amazing results!
