Hi there,

I've read a little bit about each but I'd like to hear about other's responses to these treatments for childhood trauma. My T has suggested I look into these and said that talk therapy really doesn't help with PTSD. Although I've read that talk therapy doesn't help it still leaves me feeling a bit annoyed and not so happy about this because it made me feel like it's pointless to talk about my situation and in a way it feels like my T doesn't want to talk about it either.

It's taken me such a long time to get to the point where I can utter certain things and hearing that makes me feel like I'm being abandoned in a way. Let me just say I like my T a lot but this is just how I'm feeling about it and I do plan to bring this up. Does anyone get the feeling that this is an easy out for T's to just say go get EDMR or Brainspotting?

Anyways, if any of you have had experience with either I'd like to know how beneficial it was. I know brainspotting is relatively new and there are a lot of success stories but I'd really like to hear how this has helped right from someone who has done it. I know I need to do this but I'm just trying to get informed as much as possible.

Kindly,
nutters
