Learn to facilitate, not complicate. When it comes to authentic recovery, the terminology matters. There's no such thing as 'radical' acceptance, only plain acceptance. Brainlessly parroting terms like 'mental health' and 'mental illness'. Don't support bad things that are hurting millions of people. Three ways to combat professional incompetence. The title EUPD is an outright lie about the very nature of the disorder. Some people just want the debate, stroking of intellect. Cost/Benefit. ----mo...
