    I have to say I was given EDMR for trauma related PTSD and found no benefit. I could not fathom how looking a lights moving side to side would do anything. I kept thinking that I should be feeling something and that thought blocked the processing of the lights. That was prediagnosis. I have tried CBT as well and that did not do well either. I could understand the concepts at the time in general but could not understand how I could apply them to my life.

    Now I am officially autistic I'm waiting on talking therapy but its a long list.

    Time to crawl back into my basket me thinks!!!!
