Yeah, that's the explanation I've heard, but no, it doesn't make sense, and it doesn't help. I don't agree that it is enabling. Many times when I am crying, I am scared and embarassed and feel frozen to my chair. Or I am so intensely in the middle of my emotions that I don't even think of it.
I guess this is off-topic....don't mean to hi-jack the thread.
