Anyone else feel "worse" after a session??

Yesterday was my first breathwork experience. I did not have any expectations, I just wanted to have the experience and see what came of it. Afterwards, I felt emotionally spent and pretty down/sad. I certainly did not have any expectation of "rainbows and unicorns" or anything afterwards, but I'm surprised to find that today I'm significantly more sad, too and it doesn't seem to be shaking.

I suppose it stands to reason if you shove a stick in a swamp and start stirring, things will get kinda gross for a while but I was just curious if anyone else had this experience as well or if that's just kind of part of it?
