I start DBT group therapy next week and I'm really hoping that helps me to try to keep these relationships healthy.
Anyone had good (or bad) experiences with DBT?

Without the four years of DBT I got when I was younger I would not be where I am today. It's not for everyone(like any form of therapy, like for me I can't do CBT at all it just isn't an approach that works for me AT ALL) but I say give it a shot and see if it works for you, it worked wonderfully for me. I still have BPD but I still fall back on DBT skills when I'm having a bad day and the "skills" do work even if it doesn't provide me as much relief as I believe it should. Good luck to you and let us all here know how it goes for you!
