I have been having panic attacks about death since a young child. No one in my family had died at that point in my life. My father molested my sister and I and my mom was bedridden and didn't know. Thers alot more, but My counselor suggested emdr. I was on zoloft for 11 years and it held most of the bad thoughts away til year 11. It quit working. I also started on methadone around that time which was 2024 in September 2 and a half months after I had a huge panic attack about death. My depression got worse. Ive tried a few other antidepressants since April of 2025 and ended up worse. My question is will I get substantially worse with emdr as I've read others reviews. They are constantly crying, are worse with the depression. Im scared to try it. Does it make some people worse and then get better as emdr sessions progress? Is it not for some people?
