Hi Elroy -
Multiple trauma in my life!!! Could talk a year about these experiences ... and really wonder if my mind is so powerful that I can 'undo' fright, fear, learned behavior.
I am interested in learning more about EMDR. I do find DBT (dialectical behavioral therapy - in case someone else doesn't know what I mean) only helped me a little bit, and it was intensive for six months.
When you said ...
'Or maybe it's a situation where one's HPA Axis has become dysfunctional and they are producing excessive cortisol. Excessive cortisol problems are directly involved in a significant number of anxiety and severe depression situations. The excessive cortisol actually "creates" (or "manufacturers") anxiety and severe depression... so getting the cortisol lowered and the HPA Axis re-set is vital to be able to successfully withdraw from medications that are being helpful (IMHO anyway!).'
... you really lost me! What are you saying here? I'm interested; but it's over my head!
Tks, cf
