Can anyone who is or has done EMDR therapy before tell me what to expect from it mentally/emotionally? I'm looking forward to healing because I've heard people say it gave them back their lives. But I've also heard people say it was so painful emotionally that sometimes they couldn't keep themselves together. Experiences please?

      if you experience dissociation its important to mention that because EMDR needs to be handled differently in that case to prevent dissociative episodes. I've had it done properly and not, when it was done without dissociative context it really messed me up but done properly it was a really useful tool
