Show: for
still working at it
My therapist used gentle reprocessing to help me. It was a very positive experience. I wish I could have done it longer.
Two sessions and I am the man.... WORKED BIGTIME!
Very painful, frightening process but the results have been encouraging so I persevere. Having a qualified, trained therapist makes all the difference. Mine respects me, and we work as a team.
worked 2 asssist me 2 forgive my parents 4 their inabilities 2 raise me with guidance , nurturing or security .
It helped alot. I pictured talking to my 4 year old self, letting her know it will be okay and she will make it, I want to start doing it again.
I am still working on this treatment and haven't noticed any improvement yet. I am told it will get better when I am in a more stable and safe environment.
Working / Worked
I do this with my therapist and it helps me to see my thought processes and correct them.
Done like 50 sessions of this. Resolved some traumas like car accidents but didn't make any difference on sex abuse or physical abuse or rape stuff or core beliefs
Working / Worked
It feels like a miracle!
