Feeling will involve less safety.
Make sure that your EMDR therapist understands how much you value (require) safety, and how much apprehension you have of actually feeling. You will need to go slowly, so that you can get used to the idea that you will survive other emotions. Baby steps.
I am confident that you can begin to experience feelings without completely disintegrating. Just take it slow.
