I think if done correctly, it shouldn't cause this to happen. Your T should have you return to a safe place after the treatment. It is very important to bring you back and make sure you are stable. EMDR is used like right after rape situations, where a person if very unstable, and it works very well. If flooding or retraumatization occurs during the treatment, it is up to a T to help the situation. They are trained in what to do if this happens. Make sure you go to a EMDR trained and certified in level 2 training.
