I was diagnosed with BPD nearly a year ago now. I’m currently seeing a therapist once a week and assigned with a mental health team. They are no help at all because I was supposed to go to DBT but they think I won’t be able to cope with all the work and strategies there since I have ADHD and anxiety as well so they assume that I won’t be able to concentrate. Every time I go for a session with my therapist I keep asking her if I can go to DBT group therapy but she keeps telling me that I won’t do well there, which is honestly so frustrating. I really want to go to DBT to seek help in managing my traits and I heard so many good things about it, I really want to work hard at it but it’s a messed up thing for my mental health team not to have faith in me. I’ve even emailed my social worker about this but still got no response. 

Any advice on what to do next? I just want to get better and be able to have stable healthy relationships and find coping mechanisms.
