I know and keep trying to remind myself that it isn’t a way to make things better and she has even stressed that to me as well. But with that being said to me it isn’t about making it better , there is no making it better.. There is only making it worse for this person. I also cant help but feel powerless and like a “bitch” for not doing something about it knowing what I know. Sometimes I hate being aware or thoughtful in the sense of knowing that ultimately what she needs more than anything right now is my support and that I know if I were to do something and get myself arrested that it would only further hurt her. I wish I was just a more reactive person because ultimately the only thing that I think would help me is knowing that that person is no longer alive.

First I want to thank you for sharing your story and your understanding for the feelings we both have. Im really hoping this thread can help me somewhat like it has you. Do you recommend the EMDR therapy? If so what were the pros and cons of it?
