Didn't go well. My chest still hurts from anxiety. Mental health professionals just don't like me. It was my passion for precision this time.
And she really doesn't understand what I'm telling her. Probably I don't explain myself well. I felt like my entire view of myself was being invalidated. I wanted to yell, but I just zoned out instead. However, the 28 item dissociative experiences scale tells me I definitely don't have a dissociative disorder, so I suppose I can rest assured that it's just a healthy hobby.
But I don't suppose that will matter much for the actual EMDR experience. I want to try it at least one single time.
Because this is it. If my therapist abandons me (even if he just has the nerve to die) I'm on my own from here on out.
