The way this is set up it fosters being able to do things on your own, not remain stuck.
there is a teaching manual that instructors print off worksheets for the group to do. my instructing therapist always handed out more than one worksheet..one to do together as a group and others to practice/ do on our own.
your instructing therapist will tell you which book they are using and if they welcome you working ahead of the group on your own.

What you are saying makes sense. Thanks for letting me know this and I can prepare myself as to what is expected. Thinking about going to a group makes me want to vomit, and for that reason I'm trying not to dwell on it but want to know more about what it's about. I can take something before hand to deal with the nausea, Sudafed helps to keep me from crying so quickly, and speeds the recovery if I do. My biggest fear of this group is that there will be older men there and they may become emotional and trigger some strong flashbacks and that will certainly engage flight mode. Not sure what can be done beforehand to make that easier if it happens.
