I face my emotions openly and honestly by making myself completely vulnerable in spite of fear. But first I have to completely trust my T. I can do this in therapy easier than IRL.
PS - I have trauma issues and my mind automatically shuts my feelings down as a type of 'protection'. Sometimes emotions bubble up from out of nowhere.
