I'm not complaining (I think). I am really thankful that I have the opportunity to take part in this therapy. It's just that the Group aspect of it is very challenging for me.
I'm an extreme introvert and have GAD as well as a Social Phobia. My DBT group is small; just 5 of us counting 2 therapists. So of the 5 of us, 3 are very chatting, vocal folks. I do get my turn when we discuss our homework, but after that I mostly listen while the others talk. I try to stay calm, but I do get a bit frustrated.
Also, I'm really not sure about trying to change myself. I'd rather try to accept myself.
Must try to explain how I feel to my therapist in our private meeting.
Just wondering how anyone else is doing with DBT?

Thanks for this!
