Did you talk with your therapist about feeling stuck? I ran into this and still see the therapist I started with, but I also see an EMDR therapist to specifically work on addressing the traumatic experiences. Either way if you are stuck your therapist might be able to adjust or recommend someone else.

I think of healing as a lifelong journey.

Hugs, I know that it can get tough sometimes.

I am with Kate, maybe talk with your therapist and tell him/her you are feeling stuck. Most likely they will have some good ideas to change it up or add other services.

I believe healing is possible, but I also believe trauma is a part of us and I am not sure we can let go 100%. I hope so, but for me, it seems to be a constant process. Not only with the memories but also changing the reactions/behaviors my mind and body used for so long to cope with it.

Do you feel that your therapist has stopped moving you forward? or that you don't want to fully tell all? Therapists work with what we give them. Anyway we are here if you want to use us as a sounding board to figure out the wording. We are also patients. I know one of my biggest stumbling blocks was believing I was a survivor. I am. That took awhile. to see. I still stumble.

Thanks. I need to be more open with my therapist about it becaise she thinks i have more anxiety and deression but this just wont go away. Thanks for that! I like the term survivor!

Glad you're going to be more open with your therapist, ellomalley. It took me more than 3 years to get to the point you're at, so good for you. Let us know what we can do to support you going forward like this, ok?
