There was a time where I needed 5 sessions per week with 3 different t's. I needed the support and the different approaches. One t said that I had designed my own IOP; I thought that was a good way to think of it.

I am doing better now, but still not done with therapy. I was able to cut back, slowly. I guess it depends on what you need. Due to my location, I didn't have the options of group therapy nor art therapy, but I think those would have been useful. Different approaches, more support. It may not be "normal", but it kept me alive and has gradually allowed me to function better.
