I have not tried it, but have researched it in the past.

There was someone on one of these boards here that posted about doing it. This person posted that it is mainly effective for very recent trauma. Is what they said.

And yes, you will need to be under a licensed professional's care during this whole process. It can be too intense for some people. I think every one is different, so it's up to you and if your therapist thinks you can handle doing it.

You can research about it online and on YouTube. I wish you luck.

I have done it, yes it can be destabilizing, but generally I have felt better and calmer after. That said, you want to be fairly sold going in, no use in totally upending everything. My trauma is further back and I still find it effective. Generally therapists try to avoid it like if you have a big test, evaluation, thing at work the next day, it's usually good to have some time to decompress.

I've done 3 sessions now.
The first two went very well. They were more recent less traumatic memories. (My therapist wanted to start easy)
On the 3rd however the one trauma tried to older, much deeper, very traumatic memories. I ended up dissociating right there during the reprocessing.
So we're talking a quick break just for one week, to work on grounding, mindfulness and self care after a dissociation episode.
But dispite the set back....I think it's actually going quite well. I'm actually encouraged. I've been able to talk with my therapist about things I've never been able share with anyone before because even the thought of the incidents would send my cationic, much less being able to actually verbalize them.

That's great Kikio

It's important that she go at your pace

Encouragement reads good!...xo
