You would think since this is a PTSD treatment someone here in the forum had experienced it before. I hope there's a lot of prep for it. My T wants me to start it. Actually she wants two treatments CPT and PE, but she thought the PE would benefit me the most right now. Why didn't you go through with trying it? Why is it that not many people have heard of it before? Is it something new? I know....a lot of questions That's what I do though
