hi all. on another thread here someone wrote about dissociated emotions and i've been wondering if this is the same thing as repressing one's emotions. i've been trying to figure out how i dissociate and i know i'm really good at stuffing my emotions so it would make sense to me if they are the same or similar. i recently had some strong emotion come up around something that happened a few years ago and i had no idea that i felt how i did about that situation. i have had this happen before and it's a rather strange thing to experience.
