Life after EMDR therapy: What to expect?

I'm trying to regulate again after a triggering class. My professor just would not shut up, and the guest speaker was talking about EMDR, which is on point with my therapy agenda tomorrow. I think EMDR would help me.. but living a life with less trauma is already weird enough after ~30 years. What's life like after successful EMDR therapy?

Hi there. EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. It's a specialized type of therapy that can help with a lot of different mental health disorders, including CPTSD!

What is emdr therapy. And if it works for you then I think you should argue against the thoughts of it being weird and try to tell yourself everything new feels weird but once it becomes normal to you happiness is achieved. And happiness should be the focus right?
