Just came across this page and feel strong enough to actually face it! It’s been a horrendous time to where I lost all control of my thoughts and feelings I’ve faced losing my Dad to suicide last year which triggered my mental state to go into full steam! Love to know is anyone else has had EMDR therapy and how the after treatment felt?? Much love Jessy 💛

I'm so sorry you had to go through that. I hope good things will come your way.
Hi Jessy, and welcome to the site. I was referred for EMDR because I was struggling with flashbacks from my Mum's death. I've had four sessions, and haven't really got into it yet properly, but I'm hopeful for good results x
I finished my before I should have I felt I was ready but wish I stayed at it!! It’s such a strange feeling my whole body went through it I felt emotional I havnt for a long time the worst one was EXCITED it was strange because I thought I know how that felt but clearly not! Hope it works for you keep it up your be soon feeling the weight of worlds gone 💛
I've had good results with emdr. It's hard work but it's made me look at my traumas in a different way. They are not so all consuming and debilitating when I have flash backs.
It can't hurt to try it. I've read some people get nothing out of it. So, I'm glad it worked for me.
I loved it! I got so much from it but feel I should have sticked it out til the end I felt I was ready to face it all but I’ve been hit with an unsteady stage! Am so glad it helped you
positive 💛
Sorry to hear about your dad and everything you’re going through I hope everything works out for you 😉x
Getting my running gear on tomorrow! Love being outdoors I do miss my Dad deeply but need to start doing positive things il get there
💛
Yes you will running is very good for your mental health when I run I think of nothing and great for you. Time is a great healer people tell me it is but it still hurts even years after it’s a long time healing but with help and support which you need and a shoulder to cry on when your low talking helps so when you need to let it out it’s no good bottling it in the pain doesn’t go away it makes things worse trust me been there done it xx 😉
Hopefully this rain stays away don’t think running like a drowned rat would help my confidence 😂 alittle bit nervous for Father’s Day but I do have two little boys which will keep me busy arranging something for their Dad! Hope your keeping well thank you for your reply menas a lot
💛
Hopefully the rain might keep away but looking at my app doesn’t look great but they’re not accurate. Being a bit nervous for father’s is expected I understand sweetie my heart goes out to you and at least you have them 2 little boys to get you through the day I hope the day goes well for you all you know what I mean you’re going to be sad but be strong for your boys. I’m keeping well thank you and don’t mention it my heart went out to you reading your post 😢.
Can relate a little to the status, and sorry for what you’ve been through
If you need a chat I’m always about
