The emdr.....it wasnt as bad as i thought. Its just a way to reprocess everything. I was in control. exhausted by the time we were done. Couldnt let "feelings" out just yet, like crying or anything. But it was nice to see it a different way.

Thank you all for the responses......I was seriously trying to ditch t yesterday. glad i didnt

Glad it went well....

I'd be scared to death to try something like that. Well, actually, I'm scared to death to do anything about past trauma.

Hope it progresses into something useful for you!

Colleen!
I'm so happy to hear it went well. It sounds like you have a great T.

You were very brave to go - be proud of yourself and the hard work you are doing. I am proud of you!

She is cool...im not at the comfort level to let 100 percent go while im there. but getting theres...shes very calming....and lets me be in control. she says i did well.... I found some answers as we did this. answers that I already knew but it was like the lightbulb went off. apparently ive talked about it to others befor but dont remember. Im learning a lot!

thank you all for the support...you are all awesome
