Hi everyone,
I'm so glad I found this board!! This is a quick background on myself:
I've been in therapy for over a year now. I have many issues to deal with: sexual abuse by half brother, eating disorder, abusive first husband, both parents died from cancer.....it has been rough. I always thought I could handle it all, I pushed everything down...and then last year I went into a major melt down. Horrible anxiety and depression. Right now I'm on Lexapro and Ativan
I have a wonderful therapist that I see once a week. We do a lot of EMDR work.
I just thought I would be better by now. Some days it feels like the depression and anxiety is never going to end.
I'm curious how long people on this board have been in therapy. Do you use EMDR? If so, does it work for you? EMDR for me is so emotional and difficult, and I'm really fighting it right now. I would like to know your experience with EMDR, or any other tx you might be going through.
Hugs, Purple
