Is it possible I could recover the full memory of the incident?


I really think EMDR depends on the person. My old NP told me she was trained in it but didn't see any effectiveness in the number of patients compared to CBT. I don't think it would work for me because I would resist it too much and I can't close my eyes and sit there if someone tells me to close my eyes. I get extremely paranoid.
