"Never think that you will be able to settle your life down by practicing the Dharma. 
The dharma is not therapy. In fact, it is just the opposite.
The purpose of the Dharma is to really stir up your life.
It is meant to turn your life upside down.
If that is what you asked for, why complain?
If it is not turning your life upside down, on the other hand, the Dharma is not working.
That kind of dharma is just another one of these New Age methods; the Dharma should really disturb you."

– Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche

Will the Dharma actually disturb "Me" or just my mind?

just (the illusory) you

The illusionary "me" or illusionary anything is the mind IMO.
