Starting soon--Memories

My counselor said she is certified in EMDR and is recommending it to me. Actually, I start day after tomorrow. I was thinking after doing reading at the web site and other areas...."no problem". However, I am curious about physical reactions during treatment. What forms of reaction are we talking about?

I am a balanced, successful person; who just happens to have had an unfortunate relationship with a sibling for a number of years. I do not remember how or when it started ( I was that young), but it lasted until when I was about 18-19. My sibling has had thoughts that he may have been abused by a care worker as a child. (non-family member) As a result of this, I have compulsive sexual acting out (with myself only--apparently, I am my biggest problem) that I would like to somehow make go away, and your average unpleasant memory. I guess there's more to it than that, obviously, but because I don't exactly know how it started it's a bit confusing. Is it possible that some of this might come out????
