Like others, I have had some success with EMDR, specifically Brainspotting, a form of EMDR. I have to wonder though, after three years and no improvement, if you dont have an incorrect diagnosis. Are you on any meds? I cannot recall if you said. Do you see a pdoc as well?

Maybe you need to do something radical to distract yourself. For example, I like to keep things interesting by doing something out of my comfort zone. Like eating a special diet, or rearranging all the furniture in my house. Painting my walls in different colors. Recently i decided to start body building so I can try to compete. Please know I am a 54 year old woman that is currently 45 pounds overweight!

Have you tried mindfullness? I dont mean meditiation, which I am not fond of. But do you get yourself in the moment? Pay attention to your surroundings?

Have you forgiven those that have wronged you? It doesnt mean you have to like them. Just that you have forgiven their debt. It can make you feel lighter to forgive. If you believe in God, well, let Him do the worrying about the wrong. He can handle it better than you. Just let go.
