Therapy hangover is definitely the perfect term for it. I'm going to stick with this, even though I want to run. And he told me I could quit at any time and never do this again. I'm in control. But during the whole thing I just wanted to get up and run. Apparently that is extremely normal and you're weird if you don't get that impulse. LOL.
What happened is real. I know...because I remember reoccurring nightmares. I'm not making it up. Its unbelievable. But it happened. My therapist sort of knows what occurred, in general, no details. And he told me I don't need to go into details unless I really want to. I don't have to tell him anything really. Which is probably the easiest part and such a relief.
What I do know, is that if I don't get through my PTSD, I'm not going to live a normal happy life. And it could kill me.
What kind of treatment did you pursue after stopping EMDR?
