Dissociation is actually the way I cope. Actually, it's the way I cope with a whole lot of things.
I've never had any trauma, although it took forever to convince my therapist of the truth of that. So many of my symptoms are typical of people who have been sexually abused, but I never have been. So there must be another road to them all.
I've heard really good things about EMDR. I think it wouldn't be too scary with a good therapist who knew how to do it at the right speed. Do they think it might help you with the flashbacks? I've never been able to figure out how I might use it, so I never have.
