I think that for me, I tried to THINK my way out of my feelings, and my memories, and my issues for years and years and years.

It wasn't until I really let myself just honestly have whatever feelings I have, no matter how childlike or immature or "unreasonable" that I started to heal.

The beauty of therapy is that we CAN go and have our feelings and our needs, and we don't have to intellectualize everything.
