My husband has BPD, and practiced DBT several years ago. I feel that he has left his BPD somewhat unattended to for quite some time, though I have not previously realized the need for my role in his healing.
I feel it is necessary for both of us to pick up DBT practice once again, for the sake of our relationship, other relationships, as well as his employment. Above all else, I wish for this work to improve his quality of life.

The question is , though, does your husband want the therapy?
