DBT group sessions are horrid. The last 3 have been nightmares. We were treated like children because first I was semi-conscious in ER and didn't call and then another member was 10 minutes late because she was down the hall with her Psychiatrist. I still can't figure out what they are trying to teach us.

But this Group thing I hate. I was ready to exit in tears today more than once. I don't like to talk. There is always someone in any group that loves to talk. So we sit and listen to her and the therapists for two hours. How is it that they don't see what's happening and structure the meeting so that everyone can participate even if they are shy.

I don't want to say anything and come across as a whining, complaining child. I just wish that I could participate. But I have never been able to. I just freeze up in groups. I don't know what to do. I do not want to quit.
