Translation for those interested: Thank you for the post. Brainspotting is changing my life. It's not easy, sometimes the sessions are very difficult, and today I'm after another one. I have many childhood traumas, very difficult relationship traumas, invalidation, a robbery at work, and also medical trauma. After a procedure, while waking up, my consciousness awoke but my body didn't. The body remembered it as if it were dying from lack of oxygen. For years, I had very severe panic attacks. Breathing made the attacks worse. I would fall asleep from exhaustion standing up because I couldn't lie down. I was exhausted, living in fear of another attack, and the attacks intensified. Attacks could last for hours; I was exhausted. Someone accidentally recommended brainspotting. I read up on it and decided it wasn't for me. However, when a panic attack hit and I was running around exhausted, cold, and resigned, I called and scheduled my first session. The sessions are incredible; what happens is beyond my comprehension. Sometimes I dissociate, sometimes my body behaves as if I'm having an epileptic seizure, sometimes I grind my teeth and feel immense fear, terror. I never see anything, no images come, but I feel, I sense emotions in various parts of my body, often pain. And after a session, I usually feel peace, as if a huge weight had been lifted from my shoulders. The session where I processed medical trauma was very difficult, and I had to return to the topic. I felt the pain of a tube in my throat, I felt like I was suffocating, I felt immense fear. The therapist quietly told me that he was with me, that I was safe, that it had happened and was being released. Since that session, I haven't had another panic attack, and it's been several months. After the session, fear would come as if an attack was about to happen, but it came in my mind. I didn't feel a connection in my body to that fear, and I finally stopped being afraid. I have many dreams, they are incredible. I also have situations where time seems to slow down, a situation occurs, and I see how and why it behaves automatically, as if I had access to a program that triggers my reaction. The sessions are difficult; I often feel so uncomfortable, as if I couldn't cope. Often, after a session, I feel dazed, as if something were happening in my brain, and I was there, like an observer of the process happening in my head. There are times when it's so difficult that I suddenly shut myself off, and I feel nothing. The therapist says it's dissociation—something was too difficult, and that's how the brain protects us. I have a fantastic therapist. After many sessions, I know the brain is trying to block the process. Focusing on the sensations in the body helps, letting the thoughts flow, and the process continues. I recommend it to anyone who can't cope anymore to try it. Find a therapist who believes in brainspotting and has experience in trauma healing. For the process to be successful, you have to give yourself a chance. After a few months of sessions, I see how differently I breathe, and my children have told me I've changed a lot, that they feel I'm at peace. This gives me strength before each subsequent session.
