I guess I should add here something I hadn't really thought of before until tonight... I wonder if I hadn't been dx'd by my therapist with BPD, would I still be in DBT? After all she is the one who set the whole thing up for me. I am pretty sure the only people allowed in the group I attend are people with BPD although they still do not say it on paper for any of us, it's a long process getting in and you must meet a lot of requirements.

So just thought I'd say maybe some people would be a disadvantage if they weren't offered DBT because of not having a BPD dx or even speculation of it.
