Thanks Pfinstegg.
I had to leave EMDR because it meant I had two Ts and a psych offering me their opinions, which often conflicted. As I said earlier, my emotions would come out, quite restrained, with my EMDR T but I was beginning to form some type of relationship to her that I just didn't want to risk becoming overly involved with. The teamwork had its drawbacks.
I quit after the accident, but part of me thinks it's time to go back. I just don't need anymore relationship complications at this time. EMDR has been helpful for understanding how the weak little girl felt, but I haven't had any success in making her feel better (that is, connecting the girls).
Who is it that doesn't trust my T? Actually, I do think it's my adult. It has been proven to me time and again that reaching out for help rarely works in the end--I am responsible for my own well-being, as well meaning as my T is. comes from being a kid, I'm sure, but I do think it's the adult.
Also, I'm slow to trust, and I don't think my little girls are competing for her attention at all. They are fighting it out among themselves.
See, I just don't trust anyone. But the truth doesn't lie--it doesn't work for me, no matter how open and trusting I've tried to be. I'm probably expecting too much, but the result is always disappointment.
