Thanks people for your great responses!! I've tried EMDR with some success. But I agree to some extent (although not totally) that talk therapy can have its limitations. It does help sometimes for me as I may need validation and when someone is empathetic I feel very happy deep within. I do inner-child work, re-parenting, doing things for the child within that he missed out on. I will look into Neurofeedback. When I have a flashback that is very intense (like a few moments ago), I need to lie on the bed as it is very debilitating. My plans for the day, other thoughts go by the wayside as I relive the nightmare. But this is also therapeutic as it allows me to connect with the enormity of that particular flashback - the intense painful emotions and hellish conditions. It can take around an hour to do this process, sometimes 2 hours. But some of the more intense flashbacks can leave me in bed the whole day!! And its quite amazing that at the same time I'm able to work full-time! I don't know how I do it sometimes. I'd like to get into a relationship but my fear is that the past will sabotage the relationship. I hope one day I will be free of the flashbacks. I pray.
