When I'm thinking well, I get scared because it's so easy to hurt myself more badly than I thought I would. I trust that my pdoc and therapist really care about me and want to help.
It's interesting how you feel about DBT. I used to feel that way about EMDR. A few different people had suggested it to me because it seems to really help with trauma. I would SI when reality started to get weird and I would start to feel more and more numb and disconnected. SI would bring everything back to normal and everything would feel real again. Anyhow, things weren't getting better and I finally decided to try EMDR. I guess I was embarrassed to admit I was scared of EMDR. Thing is, it's worked pretty well for me.

Thanks Yea Im learning to do that as well as you did and I have let go just a tad but freaking out and anxious although keeping in mind they do want what is best for me they wanted a list of all my meds i had so i sent them a detailed list of my medications and I am worried as He++ about them trying to weasel me into giving them all up . And I also have to research the damage i possibly am doing to myself , I have contacted some experts and have asked them their advice in all this as well so hopefully that may help me from feeling alone and stuck also scared about this all .
Im ok about EMDR but not not so much DBT i just sometimes think it is all talk and no action that all it is a ludicrous ideals from society no offense to anyone or the creator . I like EMDR better though .
