I'm not sure what is upsetting to you about group, but I have experienced difficulty with groups too. I have difficulty dealing with several people talking at once - a filtering thing, and that makes the informal chat time at groups very difficult. One group I meet with 4 times a year is a bipolar support group. 20-30 or so people. But at the moment I don't feel much connection with them or with what is discussed. They don't experience the schizo side of things, which is a large part of my experience. I have been grappling between feelings of wanting to leave and reasons to stay and participate, even though it is difficult. So far I have decided to stay.
