Behavior is caused (all of it) - DBT Weekly - Season 2 - Episode 15
01/21/22 • 12 min
Try to remember that all behavior is caused, and working to find why it happened, rather than resorting to blame or judgment :) Let's look at how behavior in our own lives and others has been reinforced. Positive and Negative don't mean good or bad in this skill set. It's about adding or taking away! Adding a "reward" (even if it's not effective) is positive. Removing pain or providing relief is a negative reinforcer!
Also, my asthma is rough today! Thanks for listening!
PS Dialectics is incompatible with blame!!!! Be an effective project! :D
