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?

i feel DBT just distracts from the problems and tries to change my whole personality.
