💎 DBT Skills. Module Distress Tolerance : More coping skills for self harm.
💎 The trick is to choose 5 that work for you - you may have your own.
💎 Then implement all 5 in a cycle of 1 - 5.
💎 One alone is unlikely to be sufficient given the power of the impulse to self harm.
💎 Do your chosen 5 then do them again. And again.
💎 Practice daily - hourly if needed.
💎 This is the way forward with some DBT skills.
💎 Practice , repeat, practice, repeat. Until the new way of coping becomes a new habit then an ingrained behaviour.
