    This Is A First.

    FridayJones, Isn't that the truth. I have my fancy leg fitted, and you are right, there is always work to be done. "Simple, clean, clear need & direction." You sum it up perfectly. How much any of the work I have done has been because it matters and how much of it was/ is because it just...

    This Is A First.

    I am really unsure how to cope. Things took a turn for the worse after a serious accident 20 months ago and I am now facing amputation of my foot, legal battles, and pain that cannot be summarized here. I am beating myself up for not having enough resilience. I should be able to cope. People...

    Emdr, Physical Manifestations?

    Hi all, I have been doing EMDR off and on for 16 weeks. After my last session on Friday, one of the bigger and more recent traumas came up (a violent suicide where my life was threatened). I still cant put it into words, but for the first time, the sensations came flooding back during a...

    Thanks, everyone for the welcome. I don't fully understand how this forum works but if it can make this feel even an ounce less like we are alone in the universe, then I will take it.... It is night now. Yep, that is the worst time for many, I am sure. I need rest, but my mind has other...

    Can't Sleep, Can't Concentrate- Scared Of Being Found Out

    I cannot sleep and I cannot seem to get anything done. I am terrified that other people will find out something is wrong and so I use all of my reserve energy to mask what is really going on. Smile when I feel like crying. Stoic when I feel like raging against the entire world and society...

    Hi all, Like many of you, I have no idea why I came to this site except that it is easier to reach out here than to any friends or family (facades are still a part of the game). I have started EMDR treatment and it is exhausting. I would prefer to delete memories as opposed to integration...
