Welcome Margaret. My apologies for taking so long to respond. As you
can tell, this group is not very active. But feel free to post your
poetry if you'd like. I always enjoy BPD art.

How long were you in DBT and did you find it helpful?

If you're interested, there is a board that's for BPD that I also post
on. You can find it at: http://p082.ezboard.com/fbpdsanctuaryfrm1

Take care
