yes. for me... it seemed to work... even if the "therapy" wasn't intended... the person who caused my trauma left my school and i wasn't supposed to see him anymore... but he'd visit my school after school when id hang out there... and id shake really really bad, and when it got too intense, id just stare into space. Each time he came the shaking got to be less. I don't know where it would have gone if we didn't start talking again.... (yeah, im so damned naive) but it had started to almost not affect me. I would consider that prolonged exposure therapy. It wasn't fun. Not at all. I wanted to severly injure him... or myself. I would have felt so much better if i could have gotten into a fight with him, but i didn't, and i think i am okay now. Hope that helped at all. even a little.
