EMDR !
I had my second session today for
EMDR
therapy for some trauma healing and I feel like it’s not working at all . Should I have more patience with this ? Thanks

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.

Intrusive thoughts of Ex
I’ve done
EMDR
and had two sessions and I found that it made me worse. It wasn’t the healthiest relationship at all with her Thank you 🙏

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.

What happens if I refuse hormonal medication?
Especially after I have worked extremely hard over the last few years going through
EMDR
therapy to try and stabilise my mental health and live 'normally'. So, my concern is, that when I'm officially diagnosed and i refuse any hormonal medication, will this be an issue?

Got a job interview. Plus my top 3 choice for therapists in my homecity. Overthinking the decisions
The third lady can offer me
EMDR
and has my name but she's like crossing the line between psychology and astrology, chacras and stuff, digs deep. Maybe i just want to be gaslighted like my dad did. Don't get me wrong just i was in Freudian analytical therapy for 3 years.

This looks interesting :) I know people with PTSD who have benefited from EMDR ...
... so hope it will be beneficial to p/w FND too :) https://doi.org/10.1136/bmjopen-2023-073727

Things that made a difference...
. +++++++ I forgot to add that counselling from SANDS, the infant loss charity, and
EMDR
from my local NHS provider helped cope with the trauma of infertility and made me prepare for the possibility of not having a baby too.

"Get a new therapist" 💔. Hurts so damn much. It's like a break up. The only decent therapist i had
She could do
EMDR
. And I tried getting a new therapist she made me cry. She was the one to guide my thoughts right. But she's really busy with the "important pathients". Really wondering whether I should stay home and search for a therapist here.

putting down the burden
I pick that bag up and take it to weekly therapy where we continue to unpack one small piece of it and process it using
emdr
. At the end of therapy I place everything back in the bag and put it down. I’m finding doing it this way means I don’t get so overwhelmed I simply can’t function.

Tips for preparing talk therapy. Bottom up approach.
a) Look at their background information: Would be even awesome if they have the following or interests: Trauma informed therapy and trauma focused therapy, somatic therapy,
EMDR
, psychodrama, trauma and traumatic stress. Rationale: how they approach things are different.

Health News: Nourishment for Eyes
You may have seen or heard of
EMDR
(eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing) as a therapy and experienced healing a trauma using eye movements and memory. We can tap into this anytime. Eyes are also very useful for reorientating ourselves emotionally.

Graduated, celebrated, but now back to reality
I honestly don't think I can do
EMDR
in this state. Or even get to the therapist's office. I'm feeling so anxious, weak, guilty. I need therapy but just for my anxiety now and idk when she can give me a new appointment, she's always busy as if everyone is insane here (not as if it's not true tho).

It's too much. All the medical procedures. Homesick. Getting into hospital on Monday
I moved my
EMDR
appointment for after my exam. I fell asleep at 2pm and woke up at 10pm (one hour ago) because i was so exhausted from the lab, doc and booking

Anxious because i made it to a job interview
Oh and what about my
EMDR
and my vacation to the sanatorium? I won't be able to work then. Or will be but it won't be really a mental health retreat if i bring work with me? And knowing i will feel bad after my
emdr
, wondering when to have it. My trauma is inside me.

CPTSD
I did some
EMDR
several years ago, but not sure it had lasting benefits, and I know that's not the norm, apparently it is "supposed" to "cure" trauma...
