HAPPY BPD MONTH: Recovering From Invalidation
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Recovering from invalidation is an interpersonal effectiveness skill in DBT.
In Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), “recovering from invalidation” refers to recognizing when another person dismisses, minimizes, ignores, or misunderstands your emotions and then responding effectively instead of spiraling into shame, self-doubt, or emotional dysregulation. The skill involves grounding yourself in the understanding that your emotions and experiences can still be real and meaningful even if another person does not validate them, while also using interpersonal effectiveness skills to communicate needs, maintain self-respect, and decide how to respond in the relationship.
Here's the DBT pages on this skill: https://eymtherapy.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/recovering-from-invalidation.pdf
