Very informative. I have encountered a lot of the issues talked about in this video.

She seemed happy to say, "DBT is getting out of her hand". You are a hero, Marsha! Having said that, the downside is that many people think they are buying DBT when they are receiving bits of the treatment, not the whole group, and phone, talk sessions, skill sessions, and whatnot. I know seeing your videos for the first time on "The Borderliner Notes" back in 2018 I saw it, brought me so much hope. Thank you for everything you helped me and many people with BPD, Ms. Linehan. Sorry about the English, I´m from Brazil. You are very well-known around the BPD community here nowadays btw!

Saved my life. I was at high risk for lethal relapse. In 2019 i waa dependent on heroin, benzos, and meth. I detoxed 5 times that year both in and out of a detox facility. I kept putting myself in rehabs and would end up relapsing again. The 3rd inpatient rehab offered me buprenorphine and i took it. I will have years clean in October. I believe buprenorphine cured my depression because my depression never returned and that always lead to relapse. When you feel like nothing matters and you always feel tired, you say fuck it. But on buprenorphine i worked full time and for the first time as an adult i felt like a normal functioning human. I could work hard and handle life. I believe its kappa receptor activity plays a roll in depression. Im aware that detox from it is terrible which is why i have no plans of going off of it. If i ever do i will probably lower it over multiple years.

fantastic overview- I would love access to some of the documents the presenter mentioned, especially the 72-hour checklist given to patients considering AMA discharge.

Macckenzie sounds like shes in a good space now...

God bless Mackenzie 🙏

-5 stars for my experience here. I had had more then a drinking issue and was told by my Doctor that this place offed a rehab program. I went in for the 30 day program. At first it was ok. The staff were for the most part helpful ,then after a while became rude and at times insulting towards myself and other patients They would routinely make fun of us behind our backs when they thought they could not be heard. Rude/ snide remarks were common. Condescending remarks and attitudes towards us was a daily issue, especially directed at myself for some reason. I was singled out by some of the more hateful staff, was called names by them...Talked down to , shouted at ect...The violence I saw first hand was unreal between the patients. Fist fights broke out, shouting matches, girl fights, two escape attempts. Violence was a almost daily occurrence. I saw two girls have scalding hot coffee tossed on them. The coffee tosser was finally removed from the hospital after several instances with this patient....I believe he was in for meth. Also even if you've checked yourself in willingly they try to keep you as long as they can, against your will. They'll say you'll get an A.M.A (against doctors advise) and keep you. They more or less tell you , you can't leave even though if you're not court ordered to be there you can sign yourself out legally. This place is referred to for vets that have addiction issues and there were tons of vets here telling their stories, so I mentioned my Dads service in Vietnam and was then labeled for stolen valor for no reason by the staff and most of the others there for treatment ,was picked on by the male staff who were vets..."look at the pussy" shouts "stolen valor"!!! Yep some real compassion there for a hopeless drunk like me. I managed to get tf out of there after 20 days. One of the staff said he'd be waiting for me in the parking lot over their perceived notions of me stealing valor on my Dads behalf. He served and I happen to be more then a bit proud of him. Didn't matter to these people...They threatened violence on me. Being called a liar by staff is not conducive for recovery. DO NOT GO HERE.

i am roughly the same age(1957) as Mac and she's always been in my consciousness. We share some same experiences although she could probably afford more drugs than I could. I just want to ask her; who was the drunk addict- Laura, Mackenzie or Laura? I am so happy that she is healthy and happy as we sally forth into our senior years.

Mackenzie I think you are a hero and I respect you 💯 I've never been abused and I never abused drugs. But however I worked as a pediatric nurse for decades and I have cared for many ( more than I'd like to admit) These poor children i took care of that gad been abused were going thru hell most especially the young children that were sexually abused by their parents...just a very sad sinerio...but I lways 🙏 prayed that even in a small way I made there life a little bit better!

I want to read her book. Keep going, Mackenzie! (September 2023).

I truly don’t understand how one woman can be credited with creating a standard of living that so many institutions make money off of. Did she take others people’s credit? Literally the DBT Handout lists one creator/author. I doubt her so much.

"Tapping" and biofeedback are also good.

Biomagnetic therapy is a great resource for his as well. This more holistic approach to the mind/soul/body is a good move. Western society has been too influenced by materialistic philosophy and Freud.

Ive had my injection yesterday and it works ok, just a sore lump at the injection sight. Better than the alternative.

Why are you so obsessed with everybody’s life except yours and why do you take it vantage and why were you a complete sell out to your whole fucking attic community to fucking get a fucking bag on fucking TV and why do you fucking still sell out your whole fucking community give for some fucking money for stupid ass programs that everybody doesn’t fucking need for like $30,000 you and your husband and everybody that works with you are nothing but fucking bots in the fucking matrix of life, you will never get any further than you are, and you are a joke to the people that you want to be

Thanks for this presentation! Have you posted the worksheets you discussed or created a workbook for purchase?

Thank you !

Louder, please, recording person.

We addicts ☹️😣 desperately need and desperately appreciate y’all professionals and the treatment teams. Please continue to educate others in this field that’s so under serve. I … a struggling addict …. Who struggle alone and isolate from the world is left to attempt to heal by self medicate thru self education. Like this webinars and about 5 other 60+ mins lecture/discussions on KZbin. I’m forced to just listen over and over and take notes most days. Why ??? Bc yes we are scared. Yes slew actual want change however the frustrating part is the lack of help. Just this week I’ve called every nunber google search provided including calling National hotline for my county and no answer. I’ve called centeres. No call backs. I’ve walked into 24 hr in/out patient centers only to be held in the intake room for 4 hours without no one checking on me or coming to me or attempting to help me. Only when I demand to be let out is when personnel wanna grab their chart and say “we can do the onstage assessment now “. Well NO !!!! This is not the care I wanna receive so I will leave. Yesterday I made myself go 12 hours of last use - having mild withdrawal symptoms and walked into another center for first come first serve-- and , once again was told to call another person …. Left there and drove to the ER … begging them not to send me home bc I was afraid I might do something harmful to myself but guess what ???? Ed physician said she couldn’t help bc they have no beds or funding bc their beds for a patient like me was not available- these so called beds for detoxing and monitoring and treatment are now for pt with Covid (3years after the pandemic now 😕🫣🤔☹️😠) I didn’t even have to be discharged. I was once again told to keep trying. WHAT MORE CAN I DO ????!!!!!! I’ve called everywhere. I went everywhere. So I just went back to using my DOC , isolated came home and continue finding my own way trying to beat this disease by myself (no one lives with me ) and pray pray 🙏 I come out on other side one day. Can y’all please educate or bring a program to Kansas City Missouri bc we have wayyyyy more undercover addicts that need help!!!!

That was fascinating and super helpful. Ironically, I am just starting Buprenorphine,naltrexone. But now I feel way less guilty. I fit those categories-feeling normal in pain pills. Also ironically, I’m getting off Kratom. I’m going to suggest all my providers, VA Substance Abuse Treatment Program physicians and my psychiatrist, and SATP group support coordinator, watch the seminar. I hope you’ve tried to include the VA to educate our doctors.

Don't know how addicts dying is funny, but psychology shows us cutting off addicts from their friends and family usually causes a peak in using and mental health issues leading to overdose and wreckless behavior. Addicts need friends family and unconditional love. Not to mention putting a mentally ill person on television for money and advertising is unethical, irresponsible, cruel and demeaning for the rest of their lives they are the intervention person when they weren't of sound mind to sign a contract. The only thing funny here is the crass attitude and "experts" promoting themselves while speaking on a mentally ill person they don't know for attention. It's disgusting. This is narcissism

ooooh before the fall!

Who in their right mind is listening to this disgusting excuse for a human. He is the biggest con, of course he would find a business that he can BS his way into the lives of the sick and steal from desperate families. This man is a fraud, he is addicted to prostitution and porn. Also has multiple personality disorder and does not pay his taxes. Who this man really is, someone who wants to get rich quick. DO NOT GIVE HIM YOUR MONEY. He is a LIAR. I know first hand.

Sorry I made those bad comments

It was long but very in lightning

She is a great therapist, I am a recovering addict, alcoholic and what she said about I didn't know there was another way to live until I realized there was another way to live is the key to recovery. Our heavenly father is guidence of it of course.

Brian O'Shea is a healer whose talents in rehabilitating and caring for people, including me, are unparalleled.

Good on u girl the pain of her abuse was a direct result of what happened to her brave to tell her truth she is walking into a hurricane and that must be difficult ur a liar because of ur addiction and an addict because of ur past trauma great big revolving door so strong transparent not many victims can come forward speaking from experience not incest sa by adult and me 12 I'm still can't speak up because I never said anything to my parents or report it to police and get some justice it would break my parents hearts that they had no idea what happened to me it was that they were rubbish parents cuz they were not at all I just hid it well God bless x

Very good!!!!

Thank you for sharing

These people choose the word stereotype which truthfully to the aware soul is simple hate and hatred toward a group or type of people. It's an epidemic itself and happening . God is witness to they hate campaign. #hatredisgrace

Really enjoyed my experience here. Would recommend anyone serious to get help.

That woman that talking loves the dollar sign talking about poision buprenorphine aka suboxone

Screw big pharma i need my norco

Very helpful

Bup is brilliant for physical dependency but not brilliant for the addiction part. Addiction requires a full agonist.

I wish the old place was still the face of it. Chef Jordan nearly saved my life with the food alone since i was so strung out i couldn't eat. This place saved my life as a young man. Thank for that.

Prayers for Mackenzie that her healing continues and the help she offers to others is the example of love we all need! Thank you Mackenzie!!

AA GA etc are not religious lol you know that. Not very spiritual to be misleading poeple good Sir.

We may say that Portugal's idiots are regular people, in USA they become president(s)

In 1974 Portugal moved from a dictatorship to a democracy without any deaths within the revolution; in 2020 the US had more deaths in the transition from a so-called democratic government to another democratically elected government...

Just one more that i've missed in the list below : Year 2007 Abortion is legalized in Portugal by referendum

Some facts about retrogated Portugal : Year 1773, Portugal abolishes slavery Year 1884, Portugal ends to life imprisonment and decrees the maximum sentence of 25 years Year 1867, Portugal abolished the death penalty Year 1931, Portugal decrees the right of women to vote Year 2010, Portugal decrees same-sex marriage Year 2016, Portugal decrees right of adoption for same-sex couples (look for the rankings if you bother so...you'll be surprised) Health care and education but not only is a right in Portugal not a privilege of the rich only as in USA- And you USA, where do you stand on this subjects?, after assessment let me know who is who, the progressive and the retrograted...

Ridiculously good. Nate needs to come back.

Integrated treatment is so important. National policy must change to meet the growing demands of comorbidity today!
