I'm curious about this claim. Because it is so general, I don't simply believe it's true. Certainly there are certain pre-requisites that must be filled in order for the EMDR to work and the question is what are they?

I have once gone to an EMDR specialist and when I told her my background she told me that she does not find EMDR suitable for me, because I don't have specific trauma episodes or memories in my background but my childhood was just one single gigantic neglect, which seemed perfectly normal to me at the time because I knew nothing else. I did not feel good in relation to my parents but I mostly did not feel bad either - I just went completely numb.
