    I appreciate this testimonial about how EMDR can assist with Dissociative Identity Disorder. I also wish to repeat here that we do not know Martha/Kathy's diagnosis, or whether she has DID.

    Everyone should be screened for DID before they undertake EMDR as there is a special procedure for using EMDR with DID. The decision of whether one is DID has to be made by a trained professional using an appropriate assessment procedure. We can't tell on a forum like this, based on such limited information, what someone's diagnosis would be.

    Having said those usual cautions, again I appreciate your description of your personal experience with EMDR.
