Art therapy is nice (being creative makes me feel better about myself), but DBT doesn't help me at all. It might help some bipolar people, but definitely not all. I was also in a group with only BPD girls. Could not relate. They seemed to get major crises from, in my opinion, not very significant problems, and then they had forgotten about it before the next meeting. And the therapists used invalidation as a technique to make us less absorbed with our emotions. I doubt that works for many people who don't have BPD.
