Congratulations! LOL! What a weird thing to say, but it is such a relief to know what the heck is going on, right?
As far as group therapy goes, I had horrible luck with it myself, but am not willing to say everyone will. I was in two groups in college. I’m just horrible in groups, I think. Also, it was on a college campus, and they let kids from the school run the group, which was not their best idea. Now I’m just kind of shy of going into groups altogether, because those experiences left a bad taste in my mouth, and actually ended up making things worse for me.
However, if the people you find in a group are half as helpful as the people on this site, you will probably do very well. I imagine that if you find someone competent that runs a group, and facilitates it well, it will be a great experience.
Do me a favor if you join a group and let me know how it goes for you.
