So, with my therapist’s guidance, I was able to do my own after she picked out things I specifically needed to work on. I ordered a DBT spiral workbook and learned from there, I can now apply these skills daily. It’s saved my relationships and life. And yes, you have to re-wire basically your entire brain and world view. I was able to get it done in about a year.

Yup. People WANT to work. And some people cannot afford to get jobs. Yes, I’m serious. Work clothes, a place to sleep, a permanent address, identification can all be barriers to employment.

Playing devil’s advocate is important for understanding both nuance and thinking dialetically.

You could be great at managing money and still poor because of the systems in place to benefit the wealthy and punish the poor.

Again, being good with money will not dismantle the way it is against us.

This. My city is doing a “poverty simulation” local event to "see what it’s like to be poor in (insert my city here) when the MAJORITY of us in this city ARE poor. There are homeless camps everywhere, too.

Dated a salesman, can confirm. They’re crazy.

Yes. Mine changed because I changed it. I had BPD my entire life. My providers are certain I was born with it. I’ve always only ever known extremes and unstable relationships, until now- after a year of intense DBT treatment. I have changed my personality, my entire perspective on life, so yes. I hope the OP sees this. (I’m also bragging a bit, it only took a year to recover from a disorder I unknowingly had my entire life once diagnosed and was informed.) You have to rewire your entire fucking brain, but you can.

Guess I got lucky that I get it free with my family phone plan.
