Hi b2c, It is me who asked if anyone has had success with DBT. I have been doing it for a year and a half and I think I see a very tiny improvement. My therapist the ice woman is difficult to deal with and as I said above somewhere I can be very cruel to her. She takes it well. I think fw suggested I look up the characteristics of a good DBT therapist because it is difficult dealing with someone who appears so cold. I e-mailed this question to an expert. Hopefully I will get a response. It is the most difficult treatment I have tried and I think a person has to be very commited to it.
From what you wrote above you were forced into a DBT group. If so the only way DBT can supposedly work is if you belong to the group and have an individual DBT therapist. All of it is such a huge adjustment that I still have BIG doubts. I keep plugging along in hopes that it will work as nothing else has ever worked. Please let me know what the hospital is making you do and how you are coping. terrics
