I'm currently in a DBT class. I'm blessed to have 2 wonderful facilitators (one is my individual therapist) and caring classmates. I have learned more about myself in 2 1/2 months of DBT than I did in 7 YEARS of therapy with my former therapist, who did not do DBT. Good luck with your class. Let us know how it goes.

"What is Real? asked the Velveteen Rabbit one day.
"Real isn't how you are made," said the Skin Horse. "It's a thing that happens to you. When a child loves you for a long, long time, not just to play with, but REALLY loves you, then you become Real."
"Does it hurt?" asked the Rabbit.
"Sometimes," said the Skin Horse, for he was always truthful. "When you are Real you don't mind being hurt."
