Anyone been this route and have feedback? Good, bad, ugly?
Seen articles about memory reintegration and consolidation......?

Thanks.

Based on nil responses from the community ......Guess it’s not a common treatment which puts me more on edge.

We can shut this one down. I think I got my answer. Don’t trust it.

Lol...not it! My t says a big no on exposure therapy. Says it's not a good idea for me since emdr is working

Mine doesn’t do emdr.....so guess my options are what they are lol!

Word to the wise... EMDR is a type of exposure therapy :whistling:

Never heard of mixing propanalol into the mix. The reeeeeeally big deal at present (and for a little while) is MDMA + Exposure therapy / CPT / CBT / et cetera. Crazy amazing huge ginormous success rates wicked fast. Years of therapy condensed to weeks and months. I’d have to double check if they’re in stage 3 or 4 trials, at the moment (in both US & Canada? It’s been a minute since I checked up on things). That MDMA was originally a therapeutic drug, and has decades of health and safety means it’s not trialing the drug, so much as trialing the treatment protocols. They’re doing well enough that the drug is expected to come of illegal status into limited Rx status. Again.

lol ya I guess reliving does count as exposure huh?? ?
T and I looked into the MDMA studies...the results seemed amazing but when it went wrong it led to psychosis in several people so she said too risky for me. Sigh

Thanks both....I can’t do mdma cuz of my profession. But the info is interesting, particularly if my work should change.
Just want to improve, but am a bit discouraged at the moment.

I’ll get back on track. Always find a way.
