EMDR simply cannot fix dysfunctional interpersonal behavior, because that’s a practice of conscious behavior. Nor does it improve communication strategies. When I was training? I wanted it to work so badly (So did the VA). It doesn’t. At best, it’s a maintenance cul-de-sac. 5/6
I just mean that in practical terms that's what it is There are tons of people who are manifestly suffering a great deal in their personal lives because they're fat, who would really really like to not be fat, but are fat anyway

I mean yeah it's a behavioral issue, it's not that fat people magically create calories from nowhere, violating the first law of thermodynamics It's that you can really really want to not be fat anymore and "not want it enough" for your behavior to actually change

Because in real life behavioral change is almost impossible, unfortunately Like yeah I've known a handful of people who've lost weight and kept it off long-term (literally less than five) One of them had to resort to drastic physical measures (lap-band surgery)

... did I say anything about weight loss?

*shrug* It's a convenient example because it's a "behavioral issue" whose symptoms are physically obvious
