Am having trouble integrating. Down to a group of 3 that may as well be one, cuz they have always been together. i am not sure i want them to integrate, cuz i seem to need em. yet they are not healthy and continue to do self harm.

have integrated em 2x but it doesn't seem to *stick*. this is frustrating for me. have been in therapy for a long time and would like to be finished with it.

When you say you have been in therapy for a long time - how long has that been? I ask as I spent 10 years in therapy to get to the point where I wanted live more than I desired to die and it took all these years plus a few more years for my therapist to help me integrate 15 alters down to just 2 alters - Me and Her (we are stilling working on a just ME kind of thing).
Thanks for this!

I understand the frustration you express. It is something that I am still fighting very hard with most of the time. Even under a little stress, I find myself splitting again. My T kinda looks at me like I have a choice but he is CBT :-) But the truth is that it happens and at this point, the choice is honestly not mine. It is like a hic-up at times!
