Is CBT a mistake?

After learning about the system, we mostly stopped using CBT. I think, over time, I have used aspects of CBT and found them beneficial. For us, however, most of the changes that have occured to increase functioning inside and out have come from learning to listen to the parts and being able to respect their view points. My t always talked about cooperation in the system which I always hated but have found that to be what was the most beneficial. Having said that, I think we never know what may help our systems and I dont see any harm in trying something new. wish you the best!

Thanks so much for sharing your experience and encouragement. You have no idea how helpful this is to me. All these years with DID, and I feel like I'm just starting out all new again. Thanks again.
