[very]

I have the best trauma  therapist in my very small town. I don't understand how a wish ( one that you would wish upon a shooting star)  for 1  friend ended up in a referral to group therapy.  I don't want to insult anyone but I have taken responsibility for every diagnose that was place on me and I have over achieve. I want through regular education  graduated from college. I was taken of medication cold turkey and stayed off for 4 yrs.  In a  group that one would find through Psychology Today would be a patient  setting. that is what I have successfully avoided. 

      thanks to  you all.   
       The support groups that are advised in this area are DBT themed. I find that they don't leave the door open to face why one actually feels the way they do. I have my degree in social work, In theory I understand why people behave the way they do. I haven't  ever found a  true peer group in person. My closest friends tend to me therapists. What works for me now is EMDR.
        The  group of friends (peers) that I hung out with today actually made me cry. They couldn't appreciate how far I've come. hey are happy with there status quo.  This was what I was  trying to express  in the post I deleted.  What does one do after they  have completed DBT?

I work very hard to live a happy  and productive life. But with in every day there are moments that I feel so very alone and confused. There are so many thoughts running through my head. I just wish I had someone to lean on.

ThreeRoses,
I deleted my question under "therapy" all together. Sadly, the fact that no one understood what I was saying makes me want to quit using this sight.  For your  info, this sight is a type of peer therapy. People vent and ask questions  through their keyboard  that they would state to a therapist if  one was around at that very second.

 
silly question? Is this peer therapy worth doing. I wrote an inquire looking for feedback. Someone moved it somewhere else and I don't think anyone saw it. Does won wait for days? or do  people make friends  in smaller groups,

JDog,
the remark about insurance is right on. For  me people forget that I have CP so all else doesn't matter sometimes. I sometime think I need therapist more hours in this week....than I go to the goats and realize I am ok.

Thanks Boatsetsailrose ,
I've been  going back and forth about  peer therapy groups. Truth I end up feeling like I get corrected for others mistakes.  I won't give up on this sight  yet. Thanks for responding to my second segment of this thread.

         bonding and feeling excepted  by strangers behind a keyboard. It has seemed like it has worked for you. I am willing to give it a shot.
         I have studied social work so I am aware of  the clinical terms one can get diagnosed with. I have been but in 100 different  boxes. As  I mentioned I was  referred to this sight by by an EMDR therapists. I think he may be using both diagnosis for me. I once learned a very important message  that the term Diagnosis means 2 people don't know. wouldn't it be lovely if we were just people.

Hello,
My therapist  who does EMDR recommended me to your sight. I have used Facebook & Instagram, but truth I have never used a sight like this before. How does one choose where to start? I'm a 40 yr old women who  has  mild cerebral palsy , a small seizure disorder and borderline personality disorder. It's been a lonely journey through  life. The BPD has been a result of childhood trauma. I believe that for my own survival there have been horrible things that have happened to me (sexually) that I have block out of my  memory.
Inorder to keep myself going I take care of  a group of neighborhood goats. And I do some office work for a neighbor.
Thanks,
Kaja
