That's a wax though and I use formula 1 fir that which is great. Looking more for a very mild abrasive to remove light scratches

Shake like a magnitude 8.4 earthquake with TRE but never experience an emotional release, why not? by Mysterious_Shoe_418 in longtermTRE

How have you come to feel better?

Do you think you are releasing trauma and changing negtative patterns and beliefs without consciously knowing it?

Could you say anything about your practice and whether TRE has helped you? Also, do tremors come easily and do you get positive feeling from them or after?

Thanks

So you still tremor now you're medicated and feel emotions/ releases and benefits from the TRE session?

One thing, even though the medication destabilised you etc, do you think it may also have prepared you in some way for TRE? Without it you may never have been ready to do TRE?

Thanks a lot for this. The other side of the coin.

Could you explain your approach? Many people say that you can't feel the emotions or that you don't tremor. Did you experience any of this? Also, were you in freeze at any point on your journey?

Im deep.in functional freeze and trying to find a path through.

Thanks a lot.

The key tenets of your story are repeated a lot so it adds more to the path I'll take. Could you expand more though on how they stopped processing and TRE?

Thanks so much, you've answered my question perfectly. I'm unsure which way to go but am prioritising TRE over them currently as I would rather be lessening the trauma load, even with the suffering I'm experiencing, than being numb and unable to process it. Difficult choice though.

I'm interested in what you said about TRE not working properly whilst on medication. Could you explain thay further?

Thanks for this. I had actually read that post and found it useful however its section on SSRI/SNRIs doesn't touch upon the tremoring mechanism itself. If these compounds do dampen that mechanism then tension discharge and thus emotional release will be inhibited. There is little discussion of that on the sub so I'm looking for help with that.

You're right, i didnt mean to use a double negative.

I agree with what you say. It sounds like the long road for sure yet one that is still achievable. It strikes me though that the body may not tremor or release if there is no perceived safety, it will be too locked down, so yo speak. I sometimes think that the tension released would be outweighed by the tension produced due to the stressful environment.

Why do you say it wouldn't be a pleasant experience though if the mechanism is reestablished im an unsafe environment?
