I did 13 sessions of CBT for CSD to try and help with the slow pacing of VRT. If I'm honest it didn't help me and made me feel a bit uncomfortable being analysed on every word I said but that may have just been the therapist. The therapist tried to get me to see ways in which I could cope with the illness and never about curing it and always about not wanting to be what I was like before. I agree with the others do take a tissue with you. Having CSD I found it hard to sit for an hour without feeling sick, I couldn't concentrate, I got my words mixed up and I felt very disorientated. Perhaps if CSD is caused by anxiety (mine wasn't) then CBT would be good to get to the bottom of what makes someone anxious as anxiety definitely triggers dizziness. I'm a believer that you should never say no to something until you've given it a good try- you never know it may help. For me VRT and balance Physio has been the most successful but perhaps it's like the tapes you used to get in the olden days on how to stop smoking where you would listen to them on your Walkman playing overnight and hope it sunk into you by the morning 😀

I have heard though in my group that it does help though so I would try and keep an open mind about it (so they can read it )
