Does Dialectical Behavioral Therapy Work Only for Borderline Personality Disorder?

[JonSnow]

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy teaches emotional regulation and coping skills, mainly for Borderline Personality Disorder. can it be used for other mental health conditions? Have you tried using DBT for anxiety or depression? How effective is this therapeutic method?

 

[Shree]

Dialectical Behavioral Therapy can be effective for multiple disorders including Borderline Personality Disorder. It also helps with depression, PTSD, eating disorders, and anxiety. Personally, mindfulness and emotion regulation skills from DBT have helped me handle stress and overwhelming emotions better.

I believe Dialectical Behavioral Therapy is effective beyond Borderline Personality Disorder. It helps with emotional regulation, anxiety, depression, and trauma. I think many people find DBT useful for managing intense emotions and improving relationships in various mental health conditions.
