Don’t be sorry. I’m not sure the affordability or availability (or quality) of counseling these days, but I hear good things about EMDR?

I’m sorry you’re going through this. Let Mickey be a comforting friend

Emde is a therapy I would like to try - mostly just finances and the fear of retelling and reliving it that freaks me out.

I'll be okay, I always am in the end. Thank you Melb, just for being your amazing self 💜

It’s ok. I suggested EMDR because apparently it doesn’t always require you to discuss the events.

But it’s 100% your call as nothing is perfect for everyone, you gotta be ready and finances are a massive consideration
