Title: Beginning DBT Post by: IsItHerOrIsItMe on June 12, 2014, 09:58:05 AM My uBPDw and I are starting to work through the "High Conflict Couple".
So first exercises is to describe what has happened without judgement. So she's tried it a couple times, then repeats her description... . I tell her I understand and she expresses that she doesn't see the value. I'm still not agreeing with her and she still feels "uncomfortable" about the situation. Before I thought I told her, the book isn't a how-to guide to get people to do what you want... . it's about how to discuss things without us getting angry at each other, which we just did... . I'm not sure if she's going to continue... . anyone else work through the book and can offer some advice?

I don't think I would be able to get my dBPDh to do this on our own because he would feel like I was trying to control him. I think it is a fabulous book and is really helping.
