Hello,

I've done EMDR a few times, and I have trouble tolerating the emotional pain that arises. After an EMDR session, I often ended up spiraling down and not being able to function well in the following days. My t has told me that the problem is that i have dissociated self states and do not have enough coping skills to tolerate distress yet. So we are working on DBT skills more before trying it again.
Thanks for this!
