WHAT IS EMDR THERAPY?
EMDR therapy is a type of mental health treatment. It has shown very strong results for people suffering from Bipolar Disorder 1, Bipolar Disorder 2, anxiety, depression, and most notably, trauma. EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing and uses back and forth eye movement or muscle stimulation in an effort to stimulate both hemispheres of the brain simultaneously. The idea behind bilateral stimulation is to help you stay present and grounded in the current moment. This helps patients understand that they are somewhere safe while working through painful or powerful memories, thoughts, and feelings. The safer and more present clients are during EMDR therapy, the more productive and successful we find therapeutic sessions to be — whether it’s Bipolar Disorder Treatment, trauma, or and other mental health disorders.
During EMDR therapy at Revibe Therapy in Winter Park for Bipolar Disorder treatment, there are five main steps: history taking, preparation, assessment, desensitization, and installation. These steps are taken over multiple sessions and help to replace disturbing, painful, or otherwise uncomfortable thoughts, memories, and feelings with more positive imagery.
WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BIPOLAR 1 DISORDER AND BIPOLAR 2 DISORDER?
Both types of Bipolar Disorder are characterized by extreme emotional highs and extreme emotional lows. Sometimes people with Bipolar Disorder feel incredible, full of energy, and ready to tackle anything and everything. Other times, they may be filled with hopelessness, lack interest in anything, and experience extreme sadness. The differences between Bipolar 1 and Bipolar 2 is the severity of the mania and depression periods. Bipolar Disorder treatment through EMDR therapy is often very similar for both types.
BIPOLAR 1 DISORDER
Someone with Bipolar Disorder 1 must have experienced what’s called a “full manic episode” This means that you have symptoms like:
- Extremely high energy
- Restlessness
- Difficulty focusing
- Extreme happiness
- Participation in risky behavior
- Insomnia
Those with Bipolar 1 Disorder have these symptoms to such a severe extent that it greatly interferes with their daily life and may even have to be hospitalized for periods of time. These symptoms are typically so severe that it is very obvious that something is off. It’s also worth noting that someone in need of Bipolar Disorder treatment of this type may or may not experience a major depressive episode.
BIPOLAR 2 DISORDER
Bipolar 2 Disorder is comprised of very similar symptoms with a few key differentiating factors. To be characterized as having Bipolar 2 Disorder, one must experience a major depressive episode and one hypomanic episode. A hypomanic episode is less severe than a manic episode and is typically not severe enough to justify hospitalization. Depressive episodes are the main determining factor for Bipolar 2 Disorder and are typically the focus for Bipolar Disorder treatment of this type. Depressive period symptoms include:
- Always being tired
- Irritability
- Difficulties focusing
- Thoughts of suicide
- Extreme sadness
- Hopelessness
