EMDR.. anyone?
I am due to start
EMDR
next week. I have put it off for quite some time for one reason or another but I finally feel brave enough to start this. Anyone else on this journey? Or any success stories?

Is EMDR helpful?
I'm particularly interested in hearing from those who have tried
EMDR
tools or self-administered
EMDR
. Given the limited mental health resources where I live, exploring self-administered techniques might be my best option.

Hopelessness
I begin
EMDR
sessions next week so hope those are able to help. I have these bouts of feeling hopeless. I'm trying not to go too hard on myself but just feel that things will never get easier. Cry myself to sleep most nights with the thought of "I'm not strong enough to go through this".

Good Morning Monday People
Good morning all, I haven't posted in a while since getting my ESA and starting
EMDR
. I've experienced a lot of improvement and have adjusted well to the Citalopram which leaves me feeling more alive than the Sertraline I was on. I've been feeling contemplative lately about motivation.

new hear
In it, the author talks about
emdr
and neurofeedback and some other things I have not tried. But I don’t know what to do. My childhood had trauma in it but it created more of a general anxiety disorder based on fear. There were some traumatic events though but non sexual.

Desperate
In 2020, I was diagnosed with CPTSD, and initially had a few sessions of
EMDR
, and also hypnotise, neither of which worked. I subsequent developed chronic panic attacks, which were more like seizures/ fits.

Realizing some crappy core thoughts about myself. How to overcome?
I was working with a friend to figure out a negative message to use in an
EMDR
session based off of what I was saying to him. He said I sound like I see myself as defective and problematic. I agree. Now that I think about it, I've felt that way since I was a teenager.

Hello 👋
I take clonidine for anxiety because psychiatrists seem to be ok with that.When I get too many upsetting thoughts I do the
EMDR
therapy with the youtube videos. I've discovered you have to do whatever helps you cope and get through daily life.

. Does anyone have experience with this? Does anyone have any other suggestions for what I’m going through right now? I’m open to try anything at all. Thank you in advance 🙏🏻

Dreadful Anxiety
It has mostly been under control with medication,
EMDR
and therapy. I also suffer from bi-polar and PTSD. My Psychiatrist has put me on Zoloft (50mg), but it is not helping. In fact, I feel more anxious on it. Maybe it is not a high enough dose for me. I am not sure.

What To Do Next?
I've tried somatic therapy,
EMDR
, IFS, ANTs etc. I've read several books including Clare Weeks. I work out 3 days a week, I eat healthy, I see a therapist every two weeks. The problem is, nothing is sticking.
