I used EMDR and it worked for me; actually it has been a life saver. I don’t think EMDR is for everyone, but one must realize in many cases getting to the core or root of an issue can causes disruption. It’s a process like peeling a onion, layer after layer and each layer has something to contend with.

When things were hard for me my T did suggest we stop. However, this only meant pausing the method of EMDR while we did continue therapy. This didn’t happen often...it only helped with the feeling of being overwhelmed.
It EMDR worked for me and I hope you gain success as well. [emoji255]
