I understand feeling emotionally... stunted. I've spent 8-10 years becoming more and more isolated, even when I have some contact with other people. Emotionally, I feel like I've been in a coma, and I'm not sure if I've "woken up" yet.

Relationships in my experience are very complicated. Not everyone can handle the ups and downs I go through, and even some with the best intentions can drive me up a wall.
