I have a date for my DBT programme assessment! I know i probably shouldn't be excited or get my hopes up - but its nice to feel like im finally getting somewhere. Nothing else to add really, i just thought id post for those who might be interested as well as to encourage those who feel they might never get the chance to try and get on a programme. I may still not be accepted but for the first time in a while i feel......hopeful

Great news, bb2023! I hope that the assessment leads to exactly what you want. I sure do know how it feels to have things finally go your way. Keep us posted!

That's good news!!! Are you in the States?? If you are then you'll more than likely be accepted. You'll basically go over your issues/symptoms, what dbt is about, more than likely do some tests that they'll use as a baseline....Anyhow, good luck!!

Thanks for the info cbox - im not in the states but ive already had a preliminary meeting with them and they made it known that they felt i would be a good candidate - the assessment is over about 10 weeks and then from there i might be accepted and then have to wait for a space to come available on the programme but this is all fine by me - im just glad that the wheels are in motion!

Thanks again everyone for your kind responses - ill keep you posted

Good Luck!! I hope that you get accepted... If you want to familiarize yourself with the course program there's a great website .. www.dbtselfhelp.com that goes over the complete dbt program and it's free.

Bekki, that's fabulous! Well, getting what you want is fabulous is fabulous ... actually, I knew very little about DBT :Blush2:.

I hope it's everything you imagine it to be. I hope it gets you where you most want to be.
