Reply to "EMDR?"

Hi you all, this is a great topic. I'd also be glad to read something about EMDR by Robin...that'd be cool.
When I first shut down and stopped working they gave me ECT treatments. It was only 8 weeks into my depression and they gave me 24 in a row. It fried my memory and I feel grateful to still have enough brain power to function. I wondered if I'd be able to do school but seems that I can.
I would never recommend it. I fought against my clients having ECT and lost...

I have had some EMDR sessions. I found it was helpful, not the whole answer but i agree that its a good tool. The most important thing i think, is to have good stabilization skills in place and a good level of trust in your T BEFORE you do any emdr....because it destabilized me. Don't know if that'd be true for others or not. I am not a giant fan of it, but I'd do it again if my P thought I needed it.
