Thanks for all your super helpful/clear/insightful videos! Lovely and kind to share these!! One question: I was looking at the slide with the example and wondering: The physical arousal, would that not be there first, after which the emotions start, followed by the overwhelm? I'm trying to match this with my understandings (so far ;-) of the polyvagal theorie.Thx!
Yes, technically,the unconscious sensation/emotion comes before the conscious feeling by a few milliseconds. But people vary in terms of what building block of experience they notice/report first. And sometimes people may notice one aspect of experience and not others unless you really prompt them to remember. The main goal when you do a behavior chain is to get the general idea of a sequence of inner and outer events so that alternate skillful behaviors can be identified and the process can be useful.
This is amazing! Your teaching is very clear and useful to me
I'm 3 years late but this is SO helpful. I'm doing a DBT training and Chain Analysis was not explained as clearly as this. Thank you!
Thanks so much! Glad this was helpful!
Wow this was so wonderfully explained. Thanks so much!
This is so useful Dr. May. Thank you again!
Thank you! My DBT professor sent me to watch this and it was very helpful.
Cool. Thanks! 👍🏻
