Hi Fran,

An integrator is finished when the subjective units of distress is down and your emotion is no longer intense, enduring, uncomfortable, or attention grabbing. You accepted it.

Hi,

Another way of getting when an integrator is finished is Steve's Acceptance/resistance Scale. Your target is done when you feel either get to (2) or (1) on the scale.

*To scale the level of resistance/acceptance of a target use the Acceptance/resistance scale which is basically a rating scale of resistance/acceptance, ranging from overwhelming hate/can't stand your feelings to loving and fully appreciating them.(This scale could also be used instead of the SUD Scale for measuring progress in emotional processing and integration work). Here goes:

RESISTANCE/ACCEPTANCE SCALE

(10) Overwhelmingly hate/Overwhelmingly can't stand my feelings.
(9) Strongly hate/ Strongly can't stand my feelings.
(8) Hate my feelings/can't stand my feelings.
(7) Mildly hate.
(6) Very much dislike my feelings.
(5) Dislike my feelings.
(4) Experiencing some negativity toward my feelings.
(3) Putting up with and not quite accepting my feelings.
(2) Accept/have some appreciation for my feelings.
(1) Love/have strong appreciation for my feelings.
