what can a person do if they cant recognize what theyre feeling? ..for example most of the time when im upset or sad or stressed or overwhelmed i feel absolutely NOTHING. i feel empty. and so my response (in that moment) is non-existent. usually, a while later i act out whatever im feeling in very unhealthy ways (bingeing, cutting, and other stuff), but even then i dont realize its in response to some stressor. ive only realized it recently in therapy, but unraveling even ONE episode of unhealthy behaviour takes HOURS. i know the first step towards stopping such behaviour is recognizing when ur feeling low/stressed...but what if u cant recognize those emotions? like at all? has anyone else experienced this? had any success in dealing with it? ..any input would be appreciated. thanks!
