Even though it only goes for 4 or 6 weeks it will be intensive if they are full days. I am waiting to get into a 15 week DBT program that is three full days a week in the fall.

Right now I am taking a 6 week one hour and a half a week in distress tolerance, honestly I am sort of lost. I did a 6 week program called Keeping it simple and that was twice a week for an hour and a half per session. We only touched on one thing each week and it wasn't enough, I don't remember a thing from that program 6 months after the fact.

Why would you stop going to your T if you are in a program? Is it because your insurance will not pay for both?

The program I am waiting to get into I will continue to see my psychiatrist every week. The program only offers group therapy and does not med support or anything else. I continue as it is now, I have an ACT team worker and my Pdoc.

You would think there would be more resources it seems that everyone is waiting to get into a DBT program and the length seems to vary on all of them.
