Thoughts on EMDR?

Hi! I posted a while ago about my COCSA trauma and a lot has happened since then. In summary: My cousin touched me from ages 6-7. I became super hypersexual, and since the age of 9 years old I would engage in sexual and dangerous behaviors. Some including smoking marijuana, smoking nicotine, sex with people I do not like, sneaking around, and etc. I've been trying for years to change and very recently, I had an attempt at suicide. I'm doing better now, and I was sent to a residential treatment which I loved and it helped me a lot. I am now transitioning to my senior year of high school and still struggle with some of my behaviors. My psychiatrist at residential suggested EMDR therapy for me, for the childhood trauma since it affects me greatly to this day. Can anyone tell me their experience with EMDR? I would love to know how it works, if it works, and your personal experiences. Thank you for taking the time out of your day to read this, I hope you're doing well :)

EMDR worked for me.
