after years of different meds and therapies and working at cbt for several years it still amazes me how deep rooted and powerfull schemas can be, i started out as a bit of a sceptic and probably struggled to start with as a result of this but over time i have become a convert and i do believe this is a worthwhile path to help understand some problems that i have and even now i get suprised at the strength of reaction as yeterday i was transported to my childhood and it was difficult and scary also upsetting but worthwhile in the end so if any of you have the chance i would recomend it but i would also say its taken a lot of commitment to the work to make progress also i wonder if there are any of you out there that it hasn't helped because i know that it has only helped in certain aspects of my condition
