Study Notes
Crisis Survival Skills: Using DBT's Wise Mind Accepts in Difficult Times
- Crisis survival skills aim to get through difficult times effectively without worsening the situation or stress/anxiety.
- Crisis survival skills can help tolerate painful events and emotions until they can be resolved.
- DBT is a treatment approach that uses acronyms as mnemonic devices to remember skills.
- Distract skills are ways to turn attention away from stressors in a functional and adaptive way.
- The mnemonic for distract skills is "Wise Mind Accepts" as these skills are done with wisdom and mindfulness.
- Active distraction involves doing something to occupy short-term memory, such as exercising, playing a sport, or watching something without multitasking.
- Contributing involves doing something for someone else or the world to take the focus off oneself during a crisis.
- Comparison involves comparing oneself to others who are coping the same or less well to gain perspective on the situation.
- Emotions involve eliciting different emotions through activities such as watching comedy or listening to music that evokes different feelings.
- Pushing away involves mentally putting the situation aside for a short time to focus on something else, such as doing puzzles or reading.
- Thoughts involve engaging in a mental activity that is incompatible with stressful and anxious thoughts, such as counting tiles or doing math problems.
- Sensations involve doing something that elicits intense sensations, such as holding ice, squeezing a stress ball, or taking a hot/cold shower, to draw attention away from difficulties.
