I want somebody to tell me the truth. Once a person has significant problems with dissociation, due to numerous past traumatic events, does it ever really go away? I have been in therapy over 12 years with a great therapist, have learned much and made progress. Yet I still have so far to go to be truly psychologically healthy. Sometimes I feel like I've given it my all and I just can't go any farther. Maybe it is time to quit therapy and accept that I am flawed and must learn to function with my limitations anyway. I work so hard to get better, and it never seems to be enough.
