I've been trying it for about 3 months. The group part was a big worry for me too, but my group is just me and 5 other women and two therapists. I found it immediately safe and comfortable. I hope you will too.

But it is challenging. Every 2 weeks you get a new skill and then you have to document how you practiced it for the next meeting. Then you all share how it went for you. I find it is asking me to do things that I have, because of social anxiety and GAD, spent all my life and energy, avoiding. So now I'm supposed to change? I don't know. Maybe if I really work with it, I will.

I do hope that you find it helpful. I don't think it can hurt. We need all the help we can get. Every other week you have a private session with your therapist so you can get their help with the homework and anything else that is bothering you.
