Any experience using DBT to stop manipulating?

Probably as a result of anxiety, CPTSD, attachment and abandonment issues, I struggle with using manipulation tactics to try to avoid what I would find difficult or uncomfortable conversations/situations.

I’m hoping with the self-awareness and mindfulness that comes with DBT, I’ll spot triggers more easily and avoid being unclear and manipulative in the language I use, as I’ll be able to take a moment to consider how I respond or what I say.

Does anyone have any similar experience of this working in this way? Or any other methods you’ve used. Really appreciate any comments and advice.
