Dinah,
Can you give us a more pertinent definition of physostigmine than Merriam-Webster does: a crystalline tasteless alkaloid C15H21N3O2 from the Calabar bean that is used in medicine especially in the form of its salicylate for its anticholinesterase activity? I'm sure you have more in mind! LOL.
My experience validates the statement : Linehan's DBT has proved very effective with the "behaviors" but studies have shown that it doesn't affect the underlying "feelings" much.
I certainly needed the coping/understanding skills I got from DBT in order to survive and be able to do the harder "Self" work. I would be in trouble if I was trying to do this now without my DBT background. So yes, it really was helpful for me. But it was not enough.
