What self help books, medications, coping strategies have helped for borderline? I've been in DBT for 5 months and it just doesn't seem to be sinking in. I feel like I'm panicing because I just don't try hard enough.

Maybe it's just the group you are in. Sometimes if we don't mesh with the group it's kind of hard to move forward with it.

One of the things that helped me was doing DBT one on one with my therapist.

When I started DBT I felt like it was a waste of my time but I find I'm actually using the skills a lot without even really thinking about it - so it has actually helped me a lot more than I thought it would.
