I've experienced this type of thing too, like my body and mind are seperate entities - my T assures me they aren't, but it's like they've got disconnected somehow. We're working on getting me to feel more 'connected up' - to stop blocking out my emotions. Recently, for a number of weeks I'd have some sort of 'post-therapy' reaction - becoming physically ill - I came to the conclusion that my body was 'processing' the intense emotions that got brought up in session. I also suffer with anxiety and panic attacks that manifest physically whilst in my mind I feel 'fine'... Very confusing, it took me a long time to accept it was anxiety at all - 'it can't be, I'm not anxious!' And yes, exhausting too.

Hang in there!
