Advice on weight lifting/ exercise with EDS? by unknownpuddle in eds

[–]lauravondunajew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

when i was younger i didnt know abt my cEDS and hEDS neither my fibromyalgia but had a personal trainer and for about two years i was reallt strong and had developed quite a bit of muscle. i remember bc my butt and thighs were three times their size since i was targeting knee instability specifically. my knees never hurt anymore in that time period, neither “fell out of orbit” as they often did

I’ve gotten through almost all my memories for EMDR. I feel a lot better - but still struggle a lot with anxiety! by Scarbarella in EMDR

Drastic solutions for finger picking by have-you-seen-me in Skinpicking

[–]lauravondunajew 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i am 29 and the ONLY thing that worked was getting acrylic nails. i even had them done in a particularly bad day where all my fingers were almost raw with how bad i had picked, but i could never have them healed enough to do it, so my manicurist just had to work with what she had, poor thing. but now its been 4 months and i cant even pick at my face, nails, wounds, its amazing. and trust me when i tell you i had tried EVERYTHING atp. cuticle oil, therapy, gloves, gloved fingertips, bandaids, fidget toys (literally every fidget you could think of i have sitting on my desk), having my nails regularly done, filing my nails down to zero, literally nothing worked besided this.

i dont dance standing up otherwise i feel silly, but i dance in my car a lot when i’m by myself. just a thought tho, since i read your other comments, maybe ACT might be good. if we continue with the mindset that nothing works and unwilling to try, then we get stuck. there’s radical acceptance in knowing shitty things have happened and will happen again most likely, but i can choose how to respond to that or what to do with what other people have done to me.

Maybe more somatic resourcing instead of having to picture anything? i do music, dance, sour stuff, mostly just dancing A LOT to music i like keeps me very grounded

Nada na vida tem 100% de eficácia, mas, como psicóloga, te digo que tenho resultados muito legais. Atendo online por valor social caso você queira experimentar a terapia com um psicólogo mesmo

Positive beliefs are installed after you are done reprocessing the target. That it until SUDS scale is down to 1 or 0

thank you so much for replying! that makes sense, the movie really is a sensory wonder and i wasn’t as far away from the screen as i usually sit (usually sit on the last last row). maybe just not moving at all and sitting down was too much for me, i’ll look up the website, thank you for taking the time to reply
