Overcoming
Silver Member
This past week my T began working with me using Somatic Experiencing. I find the whole method intriguing and empowering. While working through a scene, probably the least traumatic that we could have discussed, my muscles kept jerking involuntarily. I've had that before when recalling the trauma. I left the session, still pretty escalated, but was able to avoid processing what had taken place, because I returned to my busy workday responsibilities. That night, I had an all-too-familiar nightmare related to the memory used for the session. That won't detour me from the method, but I'd like to know if anyone else has experienced success with it? Thank you in advance.
