DEARMAN - DBT Weekly Episode 23

Today it's all about DEARMAN!!! Finally! Learn an effective way to get what you want and need, as well as say no to unwanted requests! This is a great skill to practice with anyone! The best part is with practice, you can try easy things! Caroline mentioned a grad student did his skills practice for DEARMAN at a Taco Bell drive thru! You really don't have to overthink these practice runs, and having a script actually makes conversations go more smoothly, because you already have an idea of what you're planning on saying! Good luck this week!
