Which is why it is recommended that, beyond a certain point of initial expertise, you seek a "master" in whatever branch of practice you're comfortable with.

It's actually pretty thoroughly documented in all the Buddhist commentaries that people can have a very shitty time with meditation.

Deep in essentially anyone's subconscious there's a lot of garbage. Sometimes meditation kicks it up a bit. If done properly, it's a clean-up.
