  The part about differentiating mentalizing from ruminating, "I need you to feel a certain way about me in order for me  to be ok... that's a very, very tenuous spot to be in, that sort of all of one's well-being resides in the mind of another, there's not enough self in that" 🙌

  Hey Rose I just want to let you know how much progress I have made since finding your podcast 3 years ago. I am now 2 and a half years without a severe meltdown or SH. I have followed your episodes and advice to the letter. Creating my moral compass, improving my distress tolerance, challenging my perceptions etc. Since I listened to this particular episode I brought this book. Thank you so much for covering this topic and highlighting the importance of MBT in the recovery of people with BPD. I am halfway through the book and already mentalizing is helping me gain better perspective and understanding of why I behaved in particular ways.<br>My diagnosis is quiet bpd and AuDHD. I first started struggling at 13, was diagnosed with postpartum depression at 18 after having my daughter. Wrongly medicated at 20 for the next 10 years. Finally rightly medicated 8 years ago and have been actively helping myself by educating myself ever since. You were the thing that was missing though,the direct, understandable, relatable and most importantly (im in the uk where mental health systems are atrocious) accessible tutor. <br>Once again thank you for everything you do. I cannot be the only one who&apos;s life you have transformed for the better.

  My BPD mom had a problem with OVER-mentalizing. She attributed false motives, intentions and feelings to me all the time when I was young. <br><br>I remember consciously deciding to always take someone’s self-reported state at face value, so that I would not rely on false unfair assumptions…<br><br>As a result I suppressed my own intuition and have walked into situations where i was exploited because I gave everyone the benefit of the doubt in an effort to be objective.

  Can MBT be used for other disorders, like severe depression with psychosis - fixed delusions of shame?

  I&apos;ve had so much regulation that I just can think at all. I cannot stand the thoughts constant internalising feelings thinking feeling feeling thinking there is no space none. I constantly feel suicidal now that I can&apos;t break out at all.
