One of my T's sent me to a T that did EMDR. I am not sure if it was for the PTSD or to try to recall childhood memories. I do not know if it worked or not. I only went a few times because I got too frustrated. And the T started asking is there anyone that would like to talk to me. I wanted to laugh at him, but instead I just was silent. I think that was the last time I went back to him. I did not like the eye movement stuff. I think I had to follow his finger going back and forth. Rather made me dizzy, so I concentrated on other stuff. So I prob did not do it right....

I have read a lot of info on EMDR since. Have read it has helped many people. I guess I am one of the few it did not work. But then therapy in the long run was not even beneficial to me. I guess I am one of the few that EMDR and therapy was not helpful. I can say what helped me the most was the hypno relaxing stuff one T did. I would feel sooo good and sooo grounded. And it would last for several days.

So...I would think of EMDR as positive. More have been helped than not...
