I think I have managed to convey a wrong impression yet again.
I am not against long term therapy. Neither am I against the need to work out things fully. And I am not against even life time therapy if needed.
All I was trying to say is -
In addition to long term integration of feelings through talk therapy, try alternative methods of reducing pain like EMDR, visualization, meditation etc. And that also, only IN ADDITION to long term therapy - so that you get benefits in the short term as well as in the long term.
In other words, do some sort of short term pain management in addition to long term cure. I am NOT AGAINST long term cure.
I hope that makes it clear.
