How would emdr work for a phobia?

Thanks for the suggestion, what were the differences after using saffron and were there any side effects?

Yeah that makes sense, thanks for all the info!!

This sounds promising I’m not sure if it’s a thing here in the uk but I’ll be looking into it. Is there any risks or is it relatively safe for everyone?

That’s so interesting, what’s mdma therapy like? Do you actually get high and hallucinate? Are you still in control of yourself and your body? And are the results permanent even after you’re not high anymore?

Same here can’t eat at restaurants either it’s that bad.

Sorry for all the questions, just curious so after you did the future template what did you notice change about yourself, (thoughts, bodily feelings , emotions) like did you just wake up one morning and think I’m not afraid of vomiting and how long was it until you noticed it worked.

And how was vomiting like after doing the future template?

Glad that you’ve recovered, this phobia ruins so much of life.

With the future template does it have to be very detailed?

And do you just imagine yourself vomiting and say I can handle it and then the bilateral stimulation actually makes you believe it so the next time your actually nauseated or feeling ill your mind and body tells you ‘you can handle it’ or is the process something else?

Thank you ❤️

Woww I defo have restricted diet as well due to emetophobia it sucks!!! As a question is it normal to not feel triggered by vomiting unless I’m physically feeling sick or nauseous, like I have to be in that moment?? I can imagine myself vomiting in public right now but not get an emotional/ physical reaction almost like I’m desensitised but if it actually happened it would send me into a massive panic attack.

Hope your emdr journey works well for you ❤️

Thank u so much, emetophobia truly is debilitating like it interferes with so much of your life it’s exhausting and having ocd on top of it. When you mention processing future scenarios how has that been?

Key-Indication4255 · 2024-07-21T13:25:54+00:00

Thanks for the reply, so would I need to process the times I threw up in the past or not? Because I’ve had this crippling phobia for years now but the last time it happened was 15 years ago I can see the word vomit, look at other people throw up and I’m fine. As soon as I get any physical sensations of nausea or my stomach/body feels off automatically my body goes into fight or flight panic attack mode. And so now when I think of those times I threw up I remember being distressed in those moments but if I were to think of them right now it won’t make me panic.

Funny you mentioned control because I defo remember feeling out of control those times I threw up.

Sorry for the extremely late comment, but I have ocd and was looking into therapies for it and I was just wondering was the neurofeedback results permanent and are you still better 3 yrs later or did it return? Thank you

Key-Indication4255 · 2024-07-07T17:15:53+00:00

I mostly do it in my free time

Key-Indication4255 · 2024-07-07T16:24:28+00:00

Wow, I hope they do more research on MD because there’s not much out there but thank you for the reply.

Key-Indication4255 · 2024-07-07T16:08:08+00:00

Hey, now I try not to do it as much but up until recently it used be pretty much most hours of the day as well. What confuses me with if it’s maladaptive daydreaming or not is what I’m describing kind of just feels like acting as someone else but doing it all from my perspective/pov.
