Generally speaking, approaches to treating<unk>  are still in their infancy, with not many proven treatment options available. In 2002, Kennedy and Franklin found that a skills-based intervention is an effective method for treating<unk> . Kennedy and Franklin's treatment plan involved giving the participants a series of questionnaires, psychodynamic therapies, cognitive-behavioral and skills-based therapies, and experiential therapies. After treatment, they found that participants were generally less ambivalent about expressing their emotion feelings and more attentive to their emotional states. In 2017, based on their attention-appraisal model of<unk> , Preece and colleagues recommended that<unk>  treatment should target trying to improve the developmental level of people's emotion schemas and reduce people's use of experiential avoidance of emotions as an emotion regulation strategy (i.e., the mechanisms hypothesized to underlie<unk>  difficulties in the attention-appraisal model of<unk> . In 2018, Löf, Clinton, Kaldo, and Rydén found that mentalisation-based treatment is also an effective method for treating<unk> . Mentalisation is the ability to understand the mental state of oneself or others that underlies overt behavior, and mentalisation-based treatment helps patients separate their own thoughts and feelings from those around them. This treatment is relational, and it focuses on gaining a better understanding and use of mentalising skills. The researchers found that all of the patients' symptoms including<unk>  significantly improved, and the treatment promoted affect tolerance and the ability to think flexibly while expressing intense affect rather than impulsive behavior. A significant issue impacting<unk>  treatment is that<unk>  has comorbidity with other disorders. Mendelson's 1982 study showed that<unk>  frequently presented in people with undiagnosed chronic pain. Participants in Kennedy and Franklin's study all had anxiety disorders in conjunction with<unk> , while those in Löf et al. were diagnosed with both<unk>  and borderline personality disorder. All these comorbidity issues complicate treatment because it is difficult to examine people who exclusively have<unk> .
