Exactly. Don't let others expectations define your being, you're not their slave.

Or do you rush through the flames and risk getting burned? The choice is yours. Risk a quick but painful death, with the potentiality of surviving? Or live a bit longer but slowly suffocate and wait for help which might never arrive?

There's plenty of evidence that DBT works though. It all just boils down to manipulating the processing stack. You can do it via drugs, therapy, magnets, whatever. It doesn't matter. The "brain deficiencies" are just malignant learned circuits, how do you think you get rid of those? By learning beneficial circuits! Plus there's way more evidence for DBT than for your magnet therapy in regard to BPD treatment.

For non-severe cases - sure. Notice how there's no study on what % of "cured" and not are supplemented by brain scans. In non-severe cased you can suggest fucking anything and it'll work; you can hardly call those actual BPD. BPD syndrome - sure. OG author of DBT Marsha Linehan - had a hardcore disaster bullshit life out of BPD right until the moment she started any vapid structure approach on her own - religion, yoga, hobo-style therapy teaching; DBT was just another of the series of ANY structure. People like OP who have enough introspection to ruminate on themselves would've already "cured" themselves if DBT would've worked.
Do I make it clear that DBT is "just be yourself bro" tier intellectual bypassing when you feel like you're about to be fucking torn apart by what you can see, can't see, isn't there, by your own Fucking insides?

Brain scans aren't really gold standard for diagnosing BPD, it makes a lot more sense to use surveys or life outcomes to measure success here.

Obviously, most mental disorders can be cured through structured treatment. The primary obstacle is dropout rate.

Unlikely, rumination leads to an echochamber and the reinforcement of unhealthy thought pattern. That's the exact opposite of what you want.
>when you feel like you're about to be fucking torn apart by what you can see
The entire point of therapy is to recognize those thoughts and move past them so you unlearn the malignant circuit. If it didn't work for you, sorry. But it works for a lot of people and the mechanism of action is the exact same as psychedelics, psych meds, transcranial, whatever the fuck.
>Lower volumes in PFC, amygdala, some other areas aren't "learned circuits" you presumptuous lazy piece of Sophistic argumentative vermin.
Yes, it is. Lower volumes do not preclude you from learning new circuits. It makes it more difficult and creates a worse best-case baseline, that's all. You are arguing that the brain computes using volume instead of circuitry, that's just not in line with anything we know about how the brain works. Lower volumes are associated with certain outcomes, they are not causative of those outcomes (for the most part and within reason).

You're projecting. Introspection isn't mere rumination, and the presumption about the latter has no ground of sensibility.

You're arguing that convincing a person to ignore an arrow sticking from their guts is the same as removing the arrow and treating the wound. This is cultist thinking.

Utterly irrelevant pedantic retardation. You're arguing that you could, for example, optimize a 1k neuron cluster circuit to have it ignore the sensory overload when the healthy norm of the cluster is to be of 100k neurons.

The general recommendation for any mental disorder is therapy, meds, and lifestyle change. Any good therapist will tell you that. And yes, most cases of any disorder are highly treatable. Even schizophrenia, which is incurable degenerative disorder, is highly treatable if the patient doesn't drop out.
>You're projecting. Introspection isn't mere rumination, and the presumption about the latter has no ground of sensibility.
How would a person stuck in a harmful thought loop, reinforcing malignant circuits, suddenly pull themselves out of it all on their own? BPD is very well known for making mountains of ant hills anon. Perspective is important.
>You're arguing that convincing a person to ignore an arrow sticking from their guts
No, when did I say that? The "arrow" is a harmful processing pattern. The treatment is ablating the pattern. It doesn't need to be therapy, it can be anything as long as the processing pattern is ablated.
>You're arguing that you could, for example, optimize a 1k neuron cluster circuit to have it ignore the sensory overload when the healthy norm of the cluster is to be of 100k neurons
BPD people have a 99% reduction in brain matter in those areas? Even a dog can unlearn harmful thought patterns. The brain is incredibly able to rewire even after massive physical trauma. If a stroke victim is able to relearn how to walk, I think a BPD person can relearn threat perception. And the data agrees with me.

As per my last post, generalizations are only ever useful for syndrome cases. Are you really trying to argue against all the recognized and used specialisations and niche approaches while also appealing to consensus? DBT cultist thinking.
>How would a person stuck in a harmful thought loop, reinforcing malignant circuits, suddenly pull themselves out of it all on their own?
Marsha Linehan did. So did other people who somehow found their own psychotherapy-like ways, that, like DBT, are rather subjective and pointless when you have to address the wetware directly.
>The "arrow" is a harmful processing pattern.
The "arrow " is sensory overload, cretin (not an ad hominem, just a direct insult btw). You can't do a pattern when you are being obliterated into chaos.

This is bad faith straw manning because I said for "for example" so you would understand. You didn't.

Irrelevant. This is not a compensation for lower neuronal density, otherwise we would be able to successfully teach animals calculus.

Your entire argumentation right now is "don't do transcranial magnetic stimulation or any specialized treatments because the general approach dogma is more infallible than even its authors think." This is not a point and this not a straw man, just my comment as I'm asking: literally what the fuck are you doing lmfao?

I have quite literally said that any structured treatment is good and have agreed with you that your magnets would be a fine approach. Trying therapy first makes a lot of sense because most people have "syndromes" as you say and therapy is quite effective there.
>Marsha Linehan did.
Lucky for her, most people don't however.
>You can't do a pattern when you are being obliterated into chaos.
That *is* a pattern! Sensory overload can be combated purely cognitively with e.g., meditation.
>This is bad faith straw manning because I said for "for example" so you would understand. You didn't.
I did understand but your example was too extreme. What is the actual reduction in matter? What is the limit where the reduction in matter precludes unlearning and relearning? You keep presenting unorthodox ideas with no actual evidence to back them up. If you want to disagree with the orthodoxy then fine, but you should at least have evidence.
>This is not a compensation for lower neuronal density, otherwise we would be able to successfully teach animals calculus
No animals know calculus but all healthy humans know how to emotionally regulate. I would not expect a dog to learn math, I would expect a human to learn emotional regulation.
>Your entire argumentation right now is "don't do transcranial magnetic stimulation or any specialized treatments because the general approach dogma is more infallible than even its authors think."

I'll see how well you'll emotionally regulate and meditate on patterns while both of your tibia bones break.

Research data's ~24% (as far as I remember. It was whatever it was written) reduction evidence and circumstantial evidence (because there's no further research) suggest ~24% is the cutoff.

I am engaging. I disagree with calling low severity BPD a "syndrome", it's still BPD and I think it minimizes the suffering those suffering.
>You has put any approach under the same category with the implication that if DBT wouldn't work, then nothing else would, because "It all just boils down" and "whatever. It doesn't matter"
No, the mechanism of action is ultimately the same but there's more than one way to precipitate that. That doesn't mean e.g., DBT failing means transcranial stimulation will fail. Different things work for different people. DBT works for enough people, is simple enough, cheap enough, and widely available enough that it should be the first line of treatment.
>I'll see how well you'll emotionally regulate and meditate on patterns while both of your tibia bones break.
Hence why therapy helps. The therapist is meant to act as a grounding voice and provide outside context to help the patient regulate during difficult times.
>Research data's ~24% (as far as I remember. It was whatever it was written) reduction evidence and circumstantial evidence (because there's no further research) suggest ~24% is the cutoff.
As far as I know the data is somewhat conflicting and clear correlations between volume reduction and symptom severity or lack of response to treatment are not present. Some studies show no reduction in the amygdala but altered blood flow and metabolism instead.
>Don't like the discussion? You're talking with a BPDemon after the BPDemon tried DBT further than its author did.

At this point this is a nonsense statement because even blowing own brains out is nothing but merely just ultimately the same circuit rearrangement as DBT. :)

Ok then argue with the psychology complex against "schizoid", "schizotypal", "autistic" etc terms first. My distinction is to discern what treatments to keep in mind.

>The therapist is meant to act as a grounding voice and provide outside context to help the patient regulate during difficult times.
Can you point me to research of a therapist making a person meditate and emotionally regulate despite the person's tibia bones undergoing breaking? Similar methodology is fine, too! :)

Quite a bit different I imagine!

What's wrong with these? They're all distinct disorders. I am schizoid, I know autistics, there's some overlap but it's not very significant in my opinion. They're trying to merge schizoid and avoidant which I disagree with, but I'm not sure it really matters much.
>My distinction is to discern what treatments to keep in mind
Absolutely, this is the whole point of even having the labels. But you can't know if someone has BPD or just BPD "syndrome" without trying to treat them first and DBT is a better first approach than transcranial stimulation in my opinion.
>Can you point me to research of a therapist making a person meditate and emotionally regulate despite the person's tibia bones undergoing breaking?
No, but if your tibia has broken you would typically see a surgeon or etc who would help you set the bone, right? The pain there is physical, not emotional.
>are not "just learning circuits", either.
No but neuron activations can alter blood flow too. If a BPD person has too much blood flow to the amygdala it can be reduced by reducing the activity of the amygdala. The whole system influences the parts which influence the whole system. It's easier to target the activations of the circuits than the blood flow e.g., exposure therapy for people with phobias.

That's true only by ease of implementation. What I'm really arguing against is "DBT is a good first approach compared to other psychotherapy approaches out there."
I'll just address the unaddressed core tensions all at once and state the fact that: if you actually want to be helpful without acting in harm, suggest Robert Moore (books, video lectures) instead of DBT. The elaboration I'm not going to elaborate further on (because you're to learn on your own) is: amygdala overload and fight/flight response are peak Warrior archetype territory; consciously approaching the negative state as a potential of constructive Warrior behavior is what, to be empirical, resulted in me properly (yes I'm confident) arguing this far intead of me just insulting you and trying to give you psychological damage because you had a potentially disastrous unaddressed implication.
All other approaches just do suppression, spiritual bypassing, intellectual bypassing, etc instead of facing the reality of the lived experience.

Maybe, but treatment has to be possible for it to be used.

I find that people are not typically able to do self-help. Having any therapist, regardless of DBT, CBT, psychoanalytic, is important because it puts a voice of reason (hopefully) into the room with them and keeps them from falling off the rails.
>All other approaches just do suppression, spiritual bypassing, intellectual bypassing, etc instead of facing the reality of the lived experience.
There is no objective lived experience though. The brain produces a constant hallucination and attempts to minimize prediction error between hallucination and received input. The other methods aren't suppression or bypass, they're just changing the processing of the input to better enable the patient to live a happy life.

unsuccessfully and/or inefficiently, because they're exactly of types of suppression or bypassing, the typed disrespecting the lived experience and the inherently subjective person at large.

You were suggesting people read books and lectures which sounds pretty self-helpy to me. I suggest DBT because DBT has the most evidence behind it. There's significantly less evidence for Jungian style therapy and the evidence is of much lower quality.
>unsuccessfully and/or inefficiently, because they're exactly of types of suppression or bypassing, the typed disrespecting the lived experience and the inherently subjective person at large.
I'm saying that lived experience doesn't mean anything except for the way that the lived experience is interpreted. DBT etc will attempt to reframe the lived experience to enable unlearning and relearning. I don't think any part of DBT is "forget what happened to you", it's more like "make peace with what happened to you" which is different thematically.
>Further input from me is pointless and is ceased
