On the first day of my trauma retreat the therapist went directly from “Do you prefer to cook or eat takeout?” to “Let’s make a list of the worst things that have ever happened to you.” I knew from the intake process to anticipate this exercise as prep for eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, and had partially rehearsed my answers. My list of worst things included my best friend being killed by a falling tree, my dad’s death, my recent divorce and my sister’s suicide. My mom was her own category of worst things, with a separate index…
