Thanks so much Dee for your response. I am having moments of reprieve from the symptoms, and then other days where I feel like I'm drowning in an abyss of symptoms. I  am trying  to remain hopeful, a moment at a time.

I have been  in EMDR for a few months now. It's really difficult in between sessions. I try to listen to a lot of podcasts in between sessions, like Tara Brach or  Jack Kornfield, to help me feel more grounded.

Hi Everyone,

This is my first time posting to this forum. I've been in therapy for, basically, my entire life, but only in trauma therapy for a few months. I am dealing with childhood sexual abuse for the first time (and have a history of both cptsd/ptsd). Currently in EMDR/SE, and about to start SE Touch. Even though I know (intellectually) that the CSA is over, I'm wondering how long intrusive thoughts and sensations last? I know this is different for everyone, but I find myself judging myself that I am still experiencing the feelings, thinking I should be over this by now.

so great to be apart of this site!
