I would be interested to hear other responses too.

I had my first EMDR session recently. The actual session I found strange and slightly scary because it was different to usual therapy. I had no idea what to expect in terms of what I would think of feel or say, or how I would know if it was working. It was also weird because the T doesn't really say much or discuss what is happening while it is happening. Apparently that would interfere with the process. So all that was a bit scary for me. The good thing is, it seems to have worked. I can think about the particular memory we worked on without having a surge of adrenaline or a massive physical reaction to it.
