Have been seeing the same Psychiatrist since 2007 and have gone through 3 psychotherapists, the last one very intense about coming to terms of being a survivor of abuse and neglect.

I was forced into going as I had quit speaking. Took 2 months to get my first appointment and over a year to be able to truly trust my Dr. in order to talk about my deepest feelings. I have made a lot of progress but it seems just like yesterday that I began this journey, talking about feelings instead of burying them.

My therapist describes me as an onion with many layers. I suffer from Season Affect Disorder, MDD and GAD. Finally I have grown up a bit but only from the help of this very dedicated professional.

Some information I have read on therapy length, 20 years in analysis ? Finished with therapy in 3 months ? Dr. Marie said 10 years is too long and therapy is not working......This comment has made me very nervous....
