    New to EMDR
    Iesha · 01/11/04 at 3:18 ET

    I have recently began EMDR and I am feeling a little anxious. So far, the sessions ( to me ) have no effect at all....although my therapist feels that alot was accomplished. I have never had a problem remembering or talking about my abuse from childhood. What I had problems with is remembering what I felt emotionally. Its possible that I am trying to hard because I really want to rid myself of the deep depression that I have been in all my life. Are there any suggestions how I can better open up or connect to the emotional aspect of the abuse. My therapist says that since I have built so many walls and blocks to protect myself and survive that it is making it difficult for me. How can (I) do my part in my sessions?
