Hello Ted - This is very curious - I have suffered DP/DR since about 1975 - I am now 57 - I agree it is (as I call "a living death!") I have worked with the Maudsley hospital in drug trials to no avail. I have sought many alternative therapies even Shamanic journeying and EFT and Neurolinguistic...

I totally identify with all the distress, pain and suffering that you've been going through.

Ingrid, I agree that EFT is an AMAZING tool to use with those suffering from PTSD. And we've had AMAZING results working with war traumas that cause PTSD that no person should have ever had to experience. But, unfortunately, they did and now I believe there's a gift from God and Gary to help...
