EMDR: 3 things I wish I'd known before I started trauma therapy

In today's video I talk a bit more about EMDR - eye movement desensitisation reprocessing therapy - a NICE approved treatment for post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) which I underwent in 2018.  This follows up on my first video on EMDR and explores it a bit further and also talks a bit more about the ups and downs and how things are  going now I've had a bit longer in recovery.  Also, general ramblings... sorry...

Here are some things I mention:

My first video about EMDR - My experience of EMDR (personal video)

Alys Cole King's suicide safety plan - https://www.pookyknightsmith.com/blog...
