I've done EMDR, and it has worked wonders for me and my PTSD. I know it's gonna feel rough at times, but believe me, it is well worth it in the end. I too have Bipolar 1 and was able to do it. The edginess is sometimes from the EMDR work, but with the work it will ease up. Won't happen overnight, wish it did. Hang in there and remember it's called work for a reason.
