We explore how DBT affects the brain and nervous system and delve into various aspects of DBT such as neuroplasticity, mindfulness, emotion regulation and social cognition. We also examine potential applications of DBT beyond Borderline Personality Disorder, such as substance abuse, eating disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, depression and anxiety disorders. Additionally, we discuss the challenges and limitations of DBT and propose future research scope to improve personalized treatments for mental health disorders.
