Unless you have tried this, don’t knock it please. And don’t call it fake. I did one very long treatment and it undid my entire childhood and some as an adult of very hurtful memories caused by my mother. Of course I could remember it if I wanted to, but I never cried or was traumatized by it again. Also, I don’t feel a need to keep remembering it and was able to forgive my mother eventually. That was very healing in itself. The way it was explained to me is your brain is able to file it in a different spot in your brain where it’s not always in the front of your brain or all you can think of. It was a miracle for me.
This was excellent. I'm a military vet, I worked Search and Rescue in Colorado, I was a paramedic for a couple decades, I worked for the Department of Homeland Security for several years, and I've been a cop for over 23 years (several of those overlapped), and I had a very traumatic childhood. Needles to say, after years and years of seeing, hearing, smelling, and experiencing all of the s4!t I have, I finally started recognizing some issues and finally sought help a few months ago. My therapist specializes in EMDR and is recommending it, but she wants me to understand it first, so she sent me some links to read up on, and I've researched a lot on my own. This video, in just 30 minutes, has been unbelievably helpful in understanding and being willing to give this a try. She says it'll be a while before we start doing this, but my anxiety about it has been significantly reduced. THANK YOU!
doc - Looks like our backgrounds are very similar. I'm about to start this program and I'm part excited, part skeptical. But mostly, I'm praying for success. Do you have any advice?
I have a lot of traumatic and disturbing memories. Once I hear about this eye movement therapy, I started doing it. Whenever I was washing dishes or going for a walk and a disturbing memory pops up, I think to myself, “I need to desensitize this memory and make it just a neutral memory.” And I think of the event and rapidly move my eyes. After trying this a few times, I have found that I’ve never had that memory resurface. It’s been a relief.
I am an EMDR therapist now but I was a client of EMDR first. I did both eye movement and audio as a client and I found audio much better. It was easier to cut out distractions with my eyes shut.
Thank you for making this video. My therapist is wanting to start me with EMDR soon. Knowing I need a support group in case of traumas surfacing has me questioning if now is the best time to take this approach. Thanks again.
This is the first time I’ve heard someone speak about the origin of EMDR. Very interesting, and it makes sense to me now, how this technique works so well.
Thank you for this well informed and presented video. I’ve just started EMDR and this really helped me understand the process and purpose behind it. I liked the tone of your voice and the professional approach to the video. 👍
It can offered via NHS Talking Therapy if following the CBT, it is identified a more in-depth trauma based approach would be beneficial ( EMDR or DIT).
This explains a lot… like why writing lyrics can be so healing… especially so if you read it over again immediately, with whatever the mental muse was at the time that provoked the emotion you’re distilling into written word… very interesting, everyone always says the most disturbed minds create the best art
Writing can be a powerful therapy tool. I use automatic writing, reading it again and again afterwards to desensitize, but also to dive deeper sometimes. If therapy isn't available and/or there's nobody to talk to this is the best way for me to understand and heal.
My eyes are searching for an answer - looking for patterns in my mind Instead of finding a pattern it tends to get stuck in a loop - inaction or conditioned action follows Using the moving target allows me to focus on a singular path forward while allowing my eyes and brain to search in it's natural form ❤❤❤ Great discussion - ive never tried it but I've tried similar exposure techniques
Very informative. Thank you. I do wonder how to deal with things you DO NOT remember but figured out that they must have happened and had a massive impact on you life till this day.
I have the same problem. Repressed near death experience. I hope to start EMDR soon, but I had to deal with my problems alone for decades. I can't remember the real thing, but there are stories and "irrational" fears and I am sure I know quite well what and how it happened. I can trigger feelings with movies and also games. The bad ending of the witcher 3 triggered a very powerful reaction, I depersonalized and lived through almost a flashback. No images, but it felt like dying. I am sure, having those experiences, that you don't need to really remember. I am not sure how to do something like that in therapy, but I hope we can figure something out. I can't trigger my fears alone, they are too serious. But with a little help it should work, I'm very susceptible.
@@heiker1351 I hear good stuff about Feedback therapy. I read about it from the "Body Keeps the Score " book by Bessel Van Der Kolk. Good book,lots of help
Really thank you for this video. I'm in Scotland but I have been fast tracked through my psychiatrist. He referred me 2 months ago and he is chasing my doctor up now. I have CPTSD and ADHD and my life has been really shit tbh. I'm on my second degree now so I'm not thick, but I was really worried about going for this therapy as it is meant to make you worse before you get better. I have blocked out that much pain but listening to you today I'm thinking what's the worst that can happen? I already do bilateral meditation at night but that has done nothing. So I will give the finger thing ago. And I'm willing to open up. Only person that knows my story is my consultant psychiatrist and even he said that's some story. I'm lucky I live in Scotland as it is free. We pay through our wages. But I'm doing a cyber security degree at the moment but my doctor is rushing this, I think I would be better waiting for my summer holidays as I don't want to end up depressed and not going in. What do you think of this?
I often wonder if this is why ASMR often helps with my anxiety & depression. It helps me go to sleep when I'm feeling overwhelmed with too many intrusive racing thoughts.
It is most likely a relaxation technique to calm you down before sleeping, relieving your nervous system by pleasing sensory information and shifting the negative thoughts and feelings to the back of your mind rather than processed. But possibly the grounding of calming sensory stimuli helps you to ground in the safety of the present instead of living in your mind where your nervous system was previously overstimulated therefore having a dual impact in helping you sleep and be relaxed :) EMDR would still be very helpful to process these thoughts and feelings that are triggering the bodily and mental reactivity causing anxiety and depression if it is traumatically rooted. This is because instead of coping with the impact of the trauma, it is processing the memory to the long-term store by addressing it which can eliminate the unconscious impacts of it being unprocessed and fragmented in your unconscious that is contributing to your distress :)
@@androidery1999Not sure what helps her, but what helps me is ASMR back scratching/tracing. You can try just searching "ASMR for sleep" and you can test the different kinds. Many of them have a sample at the beginning of the video, of what will be shown in the video. Another thing that could help might be the binaural beats hz frequency music.. 528 hz is pretty relaxing... and it can also be good when it has the positive affirmations in the background (they sink into your subconcious to help make you feel better, more positive, more comfortable in your skin and in the world and in life). You could try brown noise or pink noise, or there are even lullaby and bedtime story channels
@@androidery1999 I've been finding that a combo of brown noise, an allergy tab called chlorpheneramine, and a muscle relaxer (I get those for back pain) gets me a solid 6 hours.
Thanks, I am thinking of venturing into EMDR training. I see many veterans in my practice and believe learning this therapy model would be helpful to my clients.
I am wondering if I should even need to go into those traumas? I have been in CBT/DBT for years and will continue. I believe in treating the mind with such equal care as the body. I have repressed memories that I know how they started, but the memories just cut off. These do not affect me at all in my life and I’m not sure I want to awaken these. I am very functional in life and happy most days. I do have more low days in the winter season. I do have some anxiety and PTSD tied to my partner and sometimes our communication suffers. I have a hard time handling his apprehension as he questions me and his lack of empathy. Not sure if it’s “my trauma from a previous relationship” or really something outside myself coming from him.
Tell me why my eyes move back and forth when I'm thinking and people are telling me about something that is interesting and then the people talking to me look at me weird. I I just heard about this from a friend and I just listened to the video about moving the eye from left to right and I do that sometimes when I think but it's not A bad memory that I'm recalling it's as if I see it in my mind's eye
@@annalaurenciamayer95 Thank you. I might give this a try. I have been using the eye method every time I have an intrusive thought & ones that require compulsive behaviour & I can honestly say, it has calmed down my body’s reaction to the thought.
Greetings, Dr Giacomucci! I've started working with a therapist recently. She introduced me to this method, I can't help but feel a little sceptical. The thing is, my whole childhood is filled with pain and traumatic events, but I hardly feel anything about them. I'm used to depersonalizing and shutting myself from anything going on. Damn, even nightmares are not scary. So... what is the best approach in my case?
ECT damage. Can you recover lost (STOLEN) memories through EMDR? Was reduced to a virtual vegetable with intensive multiple ECTs + max level drugs. Parts of me never recovered. I desperately WANT to remember what happened. Some memories have come back - but its the blank spaces, the executive dysfunction which made me unemployable for the rest of my life. It all happened 48 years ago i am still overwhelmed every time a new scrap of memory comes back. And for God's sake don't advise me go to a psychiatrist!!!
How is this on C-PTSD I've been trying to find help in this. I'm diagnosed with C-PTSD. I've seen other PTSD therapists but none have helped. Is this available at UPenn. They treat PTSD but not C-PTSD. HELP
I’m not sure if UPenn offers it. CPTSD is not recognized by the DSM so insurance won’t pay for CPTSD therapy, therefore most larger systems won’t advertise that they treat CPTSD. You may be better off finding a smaller group practice that specializes in trauma
I have epilepsy. I assume for me at least tactile or audio would work to not provoke seizures by visual. It depends on the condition. Probably audio would be best. I know I can't handle vibration for a long while cause it mimicks my seizures.
One would need to be cautious, consider the risk, and avoid using an Emdr light bar which could increase seizure risk (use tactile bilateral stimulation or eye movement following an object instead)
I have epilepsy. If I needed EMDR id use the audio or tactile without vibrations as the latter mimics my seizures. Ask your neurologist especially if you have photosensitive seizures.
I used to be a mental health professional as well. EMDR is the new brand of cognitive behavioural therapy. It’s being promoted as scientifically proven(or evidence based), but in reality, it’s a production line to get people back to work. People seem to report some kind of placebo effect. I would be curious to know who funded those EMDR studies. I wouldn’t be surprised to see disability insurance companies behind this scam. Freudian psycho analysis therapy will always be the flagship kind of psychological help. It’s slower, more painful, very expensive, but it works like clockwork.
It seems far too simplistic to me and the theory proposed seems very tenuous. Just becuase you have REM sleep it doesnt mean that during that REM sleep you are dealing with memories or experiences in a positive or effective way. I have dreams and nightmares nearly every night and im left feeling disturbed when i often wake from these feeling tired and not very motivated during the day
Really, no one has any idea why it works. An awful lot of solutions discovered accidentally for problems are that way. However, no one is required to use this method of therapy; it clearly requires a lot of cooperation and couldn’t just be forced on someone.
It's a "purple hat therapy"... all the actual work is done by the actual therapeutic principles borrowed from other therapists. The eye movement does actually do anything. ua-cam.com/video/PZmvk30gJEQ/v-deo.html
I have to say, the bit about “Oh noes, what if big bad feelings show up???” was kinda infantilizing and condescending, and I bet most heavily traumatized people would feel the same way. If the mere thought of someone else not wanting to live scares the therapist that badly, seems to be a them problem to me. Maybe work on that paranoia that one of your clients is going to self-end and thereby end your career. It’s interfering with actually helping people with this very common situation for someone seeking therapy. You’re worried I could get hurt? That’s very amusing; nothing that could happen in the therapy room could be near as bad as what I’ve already survived, but I guess your concern is cute and sweet, like my seven-year-old being concerned about me? 🤷♀️
He literally used scientific rationale to explain something? In this case does this mean everything ever produced by science is bs? Jesus christ mr Neon Dungeon
Thinking about anything multiple times can eventually desensitize you to the thought regardless of the movement of your eyes... so yeah, idk how substantial the eye movement actually is.
I don’t know about how other people feel about this, but I guess that a person with PTSD who cannot afford it would not be very happy to learn about it. Think about it. It’s quite cynical.

Thinking about anything multiple times can eventually desensitize you to the thought regardless of the movement of your eyes... so yeah, idk how substantial the eye movement actually is.
I’ve done some EMDR work and it was definitely beneficial.

Shut up and get to the point

I don’t know about how other people feel about this, but I guess that a person with PTSD who cannot afford it would not be very happy to learn about it.
Think about it. It’s quite cynical.
