First EMDR session, I was expecting to feel worse

🔵 Personal Story / Experience

I had my first EMDR session (we used to vibrating things I held).

My goal is to get past this mind trap of the results of a mind F and physically abusive and threading relationship.

It’s been 24 hours. I felt nauseous and can’t concentrate that well.

I’m also autistic and struggle with ruminating and taking things super literal, and noticing everything!!!

I know I’m not “normal” but I feel like I should feel more things after the session…. like the more I feel after the more it’s working???

What do you think?
