Struggling with EMDR Therapy and Nightmares

This is often a sign you've been pushing it down for too long. A big thing that's helped me is expressing all my intrusive thoughts about my trauma immediately after I have them in some way. I write about it or talk to a friend personally but you could do something more artistic!

listen to yourself. this is your body's way of asking for a break, so give it one. EMDR was very had on me too, and it takes a lot of time to process

At least for me, I find keep going works. Emdr is helping me, but you may want to talk to your therapist

I don’t have experience with EMDR but I have had blocks in therapy. Sometimes it’s good to have a temporary break from therapy. But always have a way to contact your therapist incase you have a mental health emergency.
