Mmm...

It's tricky, different things suit different people. EMDR can be very helpful for fast processing of trauma. But it does NOT suit many people with DID. If you dissociate easily any way, you will need a very experienced therapist and as you are probably aware many with DID have serious trauma. I don't want to put you off EMDR because it can be a good way to get through a multitude of trauma and for some people it is good. Good luck with whatever you decide.
