RE: Therapy or not therapy, that is the question
I have in the past found therapy useful, but I have always been clear with myselves about the goal of therapy. We have never sought to integrate, but our therapy has been more directed at severe crises that pop up and we are having a difficult time managing. Initially, therapy was diagnostic, and that was a tremendous help in understanding what I was (even though it took me two years to accept the diagnosis). After that it has been basically crisis control, and checking in every so often to get someone to have a look at me and see if they notice something that has slipped my notice.

My opinion is that therapy with the right person with the right training is beneficial, especially if he/she can help manage those really rocky phases where we are potentially a danger to ourselves. The key is finding the right T or pdoc.
