Dialectical Behavior Therapy Diary
Description
Difficult emotions like anger, fear, sadness, guilt, and shame are part of being alive and are meant to help protect us, but when they get out of control, these emotions can also cause severe pain. When you''re in the grip of an emotional storm, it''s all too easy to overreact, lash out at others, or become angry with yourself.
