ok so I am just asking one more time.  6 days ago I was told I still had to work on DBT skills and plug along like I  have for the past 8 mos.  I have been working very hard on my recovery.  This is before i can start EMDR. 

As a result I have no interest in my usual daily "work" to continue my journey.  This is very upsetting to me. Does anyone have any suggesting on how I can get the cloud away from over my head?

I welcome all ideas.

Refresh my memory EMDR... I can't for the life of me get it. And I know I know it... Frustrating.

Have you thought about cbt or ever tried it? It seems like eight months is a long time to not have any progress with the dbt.

I find that walks help me a lot. Helping others. Taking care of me. And living life one day at a time... That has helped me the most. We all have the ability. We just have to train our minds.

Keep posting, know that we care.

Hugs, Karen

EMDR is the rapid eye movement that helps reduce the intensity of the emotions related to the memories of abuse or trauma.

I have been doing DBT and CBT for 8mos, the therapists issue is the amount of trauma I have and they fact that I am still beng overwhelmed at times. My therapist will not be trained in it until October.  So I fell like I am back to square one.   I am trying to stay positiv and stay in the game but no interest, it just want break!
