I am 55 & have been working on my childhood abuse & trauma for nearly 4 years. I came into therapy for something completely different, but what I realised some time later was, it had majorly triggered my past. My past that I'd not dealt with, came back to bite me on the bum. It's hard work & is very painful, but I'm becoming a better person because of it. I've also had EMDR & am waiting for my referral to have some more. The EMDR really helped as it allowed me to 'talk' about it, whereas prior to the EMDR I couldn't as I was traumatised my body was overwhelmed. I think EMDR coupled with talking therapy has worked well for me.
