Strange Thoughts

[serena young]

I have been going through EMDR and recently have been having brief 'day' thoughts about myself climbing over a tall building and jumping also stepping onto train tracks. I did not think that I was suicidal and have told my therapist about these thoughts, so I have been honest. My PTSD is due to my fathers murder and the thoughts I have had have been quite frankly the most violent ways to die and wondered whether that could be linked to the violent way Dad died.
I wondered whether anybody else has these sorts of images?
Thanks

I get images like this all the time, but I'm not doing EMDR. They often come as brief "flashes" for me - depending on my mood, I either just notice them and let them go or ruminate about them. I can get them whether I am feeling bad or not in the moment, so I think they are related to my general sense of well-being and connected more specifically (in some respects) to past trauma.
