Saturday Soiree - all welcome!!

@saturnzoon hope you will be okay

@eth hey with, hope you have a good day.

Yer @eth , all my littles are sweet natured, but some are very troubled. My psych said they are trauma holders she said that she has become aware of 2 that hold trauma that I don't remember. This troubles me somewhat because I don't know if I want to know what they hold or if it is better that I don't remember

I would find that difficult too @Former-Member . I have an extensive trauma history myself and am doing EMDR currently with my psychologist, which is helping a lot with complex PTSD. I am reading Meera Atkinson's Traumata and she talks a lot about how trauma affects memory formation which I find fascinating. The more EMDR I do the more little details come back to me, but in a safe setting, and the process is greatly reducing how triggered/flooded I am when the memories come up - both during the session and when I'm out and about.

Thanks @Meowmy you too x

Ive had 2 sessions of EMDR therapy with a psych before both ended badly with me refusing to do it again and changing psych. But Im glad it works for you @eth. I might one day try it again because alot of people with the same issues as me say it has helped them greatly. But I think I will wait till I find a psych who knows what they are doing

@Former-Member sorry to hear you had that experience. I'm just saying it is working for me, but I don't have the same MH issues as you, so I can't say what would be best for you. I have bipolar 1 and complex PTSD. I hope you find someone helpful.
