    Without commenting on the specifics of your situation, I'll say generally that it is very common for there to be increased anxiety before an EMDR session for PTSD. AFter all, the traumatic material has been pushed away, but as the day for EMDR approaches, the body begins to prepare for releasing the material, or you could say perhaps the mind is increasing its preparedness and/or reluctance to feel the distress. Either way its all normal.
