[quote=Anonymous]I think your time would be better spent in individual therapy for you, to learn how to do whatever it is you need to do for *you*, not for them. It might depend on what you hope to get out of it, as PP noted, but in general, I wouldn't. FWIW, I've been seeing my therapist for a long time, at some points multiple times/week, which helped immensely in being raised in a family with personality disordered parents and sister (who has some Axis I dx going on, too). At one point, early in that process, my sister's therapist wanted to do some full family sessions and I flat-out refused, with my therapists support. I think family therapy is, primarily, for families with young, dependent children. There may be exceptions, but it's not something I'd pursue.[/quote]
