I have read that they are 50-75% through when ILYBINILWY. then
I am looking at about a year yet. With counseling that can shorten it and she goes once a week.
Not sure where you are getting your info from but these facts do not sound right.

Normally a crisis is marked from the start of BD.
A very short one would last 1-2 years minimum.
Some could last 12-15 years.
Or anywhere in between.
Never knew that counseling would shorten the time in the tunnel, the ones that I have heard including my own wife's it can make it worse.
Now maybe if MWD is her counselor, you might be right.
But thats not what I have seen.
