I don't know if I believe in EMDR or not but I asked T if we could do it about shame today. So we did. We've discussed these same incidents many times but I still have the feelings of shame about my body. I was embarrassed during the session but my T is very happy that I am going to pursue this subject. At the end I said the feeling word is "exposed." So we will pursue EMDR again next week. I know T doesn't judge me but talking about this stuff is really hard and makes me feel exposed, in addition to the incidents themselves making me feel that way. I have always felt that I need to do something about the way I feel but never could trust a T enough. It's now or never.
