Deep Brain Reorientation

So you keep your eyes closed the whole time and where does the therapist sit- how close to you?

About 5 feet away.

When you first started what did they tell you to expect during or after the session?

I was the first patient my T tried it on, so neither of us had any idea other than that different people experience it differently. I am a musician and I see music as colors, and that was what I experienced. Like drops of paint, gathering, dripping and gathering again.

Were you worried about losing control emotionally? How long is the session?

Not at all. This DOES NOT involve dealing with trauma in any way. T read the script and I followed along.

Our sessions are 50 minutes and it took about 40 minutes of that, maybe only 30?

There was no stress or strain, no talk about trauma, no dealing with anything to do with trauma.

More work done today and it becomes clear this is for difficult to deal with memories.

One of my worst happens to be indistinct voices talking. It happened in a noisy restaurant this morning. Just all that noise and no clear voices - brain wants to go hypervigilent and figure it out. So the original voices? Nurses - figuring out what part they were going to hold down while someone stuck the needle in.

So yeah, it's like a tour of grounding to where I am. Really grounding. Then in and out in and out, not with the memories but making my head recognize where I really was? Not there here. It happened then not its happening now
