KH - From PTSD Crisis to Calm: IEMT and Complex Trauma
In February 2023, I reached a crisis point.
Years of unresolved trauma had taken their toll. My mental health was in serious decline, and I experienced a suicide attempt following overwhelming intrusive memories and emotional distress. I admitted myself to an NHS psychiatric ward for safety, believing intensive support would help. But even there, I felt stuck.
I had already tried counselling and various therapies for my past trauma. I had spoken about what happened many times. Yet the intrusive images, emotional triggers and sleepless nights continued. Nothing seemed to shift the intensity.
A friend recommended Emma and IEMT (Integral Eye Movement Therapy). She described it as life-changing. I was sceptical — but after reaching crisis point, I knew I needed something different.
When I contacted Emma, I was very unwell. I expected therapy to take months or years, as it had before.
Instead, I experienced change much more quickly than I thought possible....
