Description
Όλοι μας γνωρίζουμε τι θα πει καταθλιπτική ή ευφορική (χαρούμενη) διάθεση, όπως επίσης όλοι οι άνθρωποι περνούν περιόδους που επηρεάζουν την διάθεσή τους προς μία μελαγχολική πλευρά η οποία μπορεί να κυμαίνεται από μία καθημερινή ανία σε μία πιο αρνητική διάθεση... Ακόμη και τα αρνητικά συναισθήματα όμως είναι χρήσιμα, καθώς μας μεταφέρουν χρήσιμες πληροφορίες για τις σκέψεις που κάνουμε και ίσως είναι δύσκολο να συνειδητοποιήσουμε.. Η αλήθεια είναι ότι συχνά ο λόγος μιας μικρής η μεγάλης "αρνητικής διάθεσης", είναι κάποια "εξωτερικά εμπόδια" στην καθημερινότητα του ανθρώπου, τα οποία μπορούν και "ενεργοποιούν" τυχόν αρνητικές σκέψεις που μπορεί να υπάρχουν για τον εαυτό του, τις ικανότητες και τις δυνατότητες που πιστεύει ότι έχει, να διαφύγει ή να αλλάξει τα εμπόδια αυτά... Η εμπειρία έχει δείξει ότι κάθε φορά που ένας άνθρωπος θεωρούσε ότι δεν μπορούσε να αλλάξει μια κατάσταση, τελικά το κατόρθωσε, αλλάζοντας κάτι στο πώς σκεφτόταν, για τον εαυτό του και τις ικανότητες του... Όταν προσεγγίζουμε καταστάσεις προκλήσεις, το μυαλό μας δεν κάνει μόνο σκέψεις για αυτές τις καταστασεις, αλλά και σκέψεις (συχνά ασυνείδητες) για τον εαυτό μας (ικανότητες, δυνατότητες, "τα πρέπει" που έχουμε μάθει να πιστεύουμε κ.α.) Οι σκέψεις που κάνουμε για τον εαυτό μας όταν βρισκόμαστε μπροστά σε εμπόδια είναι αυτές που δημιουργούν περισσότερο τα συναισθήματα που νιώθουμε, και λιγότερο τα ίδια τα εμπόδια...

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) is a form of psychotherapy applied to problems such as depression, anxiety disorders, abuse, relationship and marriage problems, eating disorders and serious mental illness.The therapist emphasizes what is happening in the current life rather than the past and what led to the difficulties.

Approach

It is used for people with suicidal behavior, post-traumatic stress disorder, substance use disorder, bipolar disorder, eating disorders, ADHD, depression, anxiety.

DBT focuses on acceptance and change. It helps the person to get to know themselves better, to think about why they do what they do, without judgment. Replacing a negative behavior or habit with ones that can improve the quality of life. Dialectic is the idea that two different things can be true at the same time. At the same time as accepting yourself exactly as you are, comes the recognition of your effort to change.

It helps the individual understand themselves more effectively, along with their roles and communication style and supports them in developing more functional ways of thinking and communicating within their system.
