It’s not happening

I waited for months to get an EMDR appointment. Finally did intake last Tuesday, went through all my trauma with a stranger and at the end she said she had to talk to her supervisors about my SZA diagnosis. Well she called today and they said it’d be too big of a risk and to reach out when my symptoms are better medicated. ■■■■ man. I’m so angry. So disappointed.

I’m sorry.

That really is disappointing.

Sorry to hear. It must be a lot of time lost and frustration

I read a couple of books on it and did it myself.

I wouldn’t want to relay any horrors to another person anyway.

It is just a matter of setting the mindset and procedure and then moving your eyes left and right while thinking about trauma. The right mindset and procedure is to identify goals and purpose and end on a bright note of positivity.

It is pretty simple and worked for me.

If you are worried about it don’t do it.

Thanks guys. I’m so bummed. My partner is going to help me look for another place but I’m not really sure I want to do intake again. At least not anytime soon.

I wish I could do the same but I worry about retraumatizing myself without the help of a trained professional. I’m glad to hear it worked for you.
