Hope you can get some good rest, can only imagine how draining it would be for you.

Take care. 🙂

Re: EMDR - Has anyone done this

Hi everyone! I mentioned last week that we would just be popping this thread over to here in the Our Stories section of the forum. As the conversation has moved into a longer journal/story style its just a bit better suited for this area. Don't let this stop you posting or connecting in here though- same conversation to get involved in just in a new spot! 

 

@oceangirl @Doglover @Former-Member @Gazza75 @eth (just tagging a few people that seem to be quite active in here so you know where this thread is - sorry if I have missed others!)

Re: EMDR - Has anyone done this

@Former-Member  Sounds like quite a draining experience. I hope you can rest up for awhile now. Take care if you can. 💕💜

Re: EMDR - Has anyone done this

Hi @Former-Member  sending warm wishes for a swift recovery from your latest EMDR session.  I've had traumatic events which took several sessions to process.  Be patient with yourself and also as gentle with yourself as you can be after each session.  I always try to have a day at home after my session, or at least a few hours.  

Well done sharing so bravely here. xx

@eth 

Thanks

Yes i rested for a couple of hrs

Then i felt ok so did some singing prac & then went to an aqua class.

So the meds r holding me enough to get thru them 

Im very happy with the progress

I find it so fascinating

Re: EMDR - Has anyone done this

Hi @Former-Member - yes you are in the EMDR thread 😊 Good work navigating the forums and posting here. You are doing great at working out the tech! 

Re: EMDR - Has anyone done this

@Lauz 

Thanks

Ill keep posting feedback re EMDR as i swear by this therapy.

So far the trick is to rest up a couple of hrs after it.

 

Sure u do get upset visualizing the trauma but i do find that this therapist controls the session so u do cope. He really makes sure ive calmed right down before leaving.

 

As my therapist said ive done most of the hard work by listing all my traumas

Think the preparation work is the hardest.

I actually look forward to these sessions cause i know im going to release more pain
