Hmmmmm, I think I remember a "wise woman" who said something about it being ok to experience those feelings----damn it is scary!!!! I admire your sensitive soul. You know you have feelings, you know what they are and I know you can deal with them and work thru them.
Yes, there is a time for shutting them down so you can do the tasks at hand. But, I do hope you go back to them, acknowledge them and experience them. I envy the ability to do that.
Supporting you while you work thru all this. Knowing you will come out on the other side perhaps exhausted, taking a few smaller steps, perhaps going a bit slower but victorious non the less in this particular struggle.
If you need to talk or anything, I'm a PM away.
