Abstract
We present in this study some particularities of intervention by Desensitization and Reprocessing by Bilateral Stimulations technique (EMDR) to treat complex cases who benefited from a long- term psychiatric drug treatment earlier in adolescence and early adulthood, which makes the retreatment process slower despite its efficacy. We used the clinical method by studying three cases, focusing first on stabilization techniques, building resources and grounding exercises and later when retreatment was interrupted by temporary periods of dissociation and anesthesia, which threatens the retreatment process. We have adopted also specific protocols for reprocessing the memories activating the current symptoms to help access calmly and gently to implicit and sometimes unconscious memory networks affecting the patient’s problem. We applied the revised mental health scale before and after treatment to highlight the changes that occurred and the results obtained showed a significant decrease of the three cases general symptoms severity index. The index of depression, obsessive ruminative symptoms, anxiety and reactive sensitivity also decreased.
