Need some reassurance for EMDR
Amyleen17 November 12th, 2023

Hi everyone, I am new here.


I need some reassurance/compassion.


I've been working on that childhood memory where I was home alone hiding from a kid outside the house who wanted to hurt me. I don't remember how I felt then.


Now I am feeling very alone with a lot of anxiety about dying! I'm imagining dying any second and it feels panicking.


I haven't expected this memory would hold all of that. Could it? Or could it be other life events?


Thank you for your support

@Amyleen17 it could be just that memory but it could be more also. It can be something you aren't aware of right now. But thats impossible to tell right now so start with that memory you have. Work with one thing at the time. Focus on emdr and that memory now, and deal with the rest when that comes.

Thank you. I am actually thinking about a lot right now. That would be a good thing to just focus on one thing.
