ConclusionsThis study provides support for strategies relating to sleep, and drug and alcohol abstinence, and for several strategies yet to be explored such as spending time with pets. Future studies should explore the use of these strategies longitudinally and how depression symptoms may mediate the relationship between the use of self ‐care strategies, quality of life, and illness intrusiveness.

A thematic analysis of compassion ‐focused imagery for people with personality disorder: inhibitors, facilitators and clinical recommendations
ConclusionsClients with PD diagnoses face numerous inhibitors to CFI that occur transdiagnostically. Others may be more specific to this population, such as fear of compassion focused on a dangerous “other.” Some inhibitors are not overcome with practice alone, including weak imagery. Failure to assess for and address inhibitors prior to introducing CFI in this population risks causing harm to clients. (Source: Clinical Psychologist)
