Thank you!
EMDR is like most treatments, it works for some and some it doesn't but there have been a lot of positive outcomes with it. Basically you meet with a therapist and develop a therapeutic relationship, then you work on certain memories by watching a hand, or item , go back and forth stimulating the right and left sides of the brain. Check it out on Google and I'm sure they will have better info on it. It would be worth a try I think.
