Yes when I was diagnosed with PTSD.

It was very interesting and I think it could have been helpful had I had more sessions.

I remember it being big in the 90s, it apparently works well for certain disorders, however, it is not recommended for those with Bipolar and certain other conditions so needs proper study before using.

This therapy has been used by people suffering from PTSD with great success.

I bought a book about coping with stress and there was a brief EMDR protocol at the end, showing what to do. This basic process was really easy to learn and I felt it helped me.

I, along with most people, have had trauma at some point in our lives. I've recently come across EMDR (Eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing). Have any of you had this therapy and would you recommend it? Grateful for your thoughts.
