Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

- I know I need to face the memory eventually, but the moment I get near it I get pulled all the way under

Practices that may help
- EMDR: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a structured trauma therapy developed by Francine Shapiro in which a client processes distressing memories while tracking side-to-side stimuli. It is among the most evidence-supported treatments for PTSD, though the specific role of eye movements versus the broader exposure-and-processing protocol remains debated among researchers. - Bilateral Stimulation During Active Processing
Hold the distressing memory in mind while tracking rhythmic left-right stimulation — and notice what shifts.
EMDR: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing - Safe Place Installation
Anchor a vivid, calming mental image you can return to when distress spikes during processing.
EMDR: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing - Reevaluation at the Start of Each Session
Begin every new EMDR session by checking whether last session’s gains held — and what emerged in between.
EMDR: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing - Use the safe place for in-the-moment regulation
When distress escalates, briefly access the image to interrupt the escalation cycle before deciding what to do.
EMDR Safe Place, Made Practical - Cognitive and Somatic Interweaves
When processing stalls, a brief therapist-supplied statement or question can restart the chain.
EMDR: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing - Body Scan and Session Closure
Sweep attention through the body after processing to catch residual tension before closing the session.
EMDR: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing - Installation of the Positive Cognition
Once distress has cleared, strengthen the preferred self-belief with bilateral stimulation.
EMDR: Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing - Havening with lateral eye movements
Add side-to-side eye movements to the touch sequence to deepen attentional interruption.
Self-Havening: Calming the Nervous System Through Touch - Titration (work in tiny, tolerable doses)
