Its hard to do that and function in daily life. Unhealthy people cannot just "put it away to deal with it another time". If we could do that, we wouldn't be in therapy. My T has a very hard time comprehending this. I think that is because she is "normal" and has never had to deal with hardcore feelings before. Feeling feelings is nice and all, but the bottom line is you cannot work, you cannot pay the bills if you are just walking around feeling feelings all the time. And feelings arent much use when you are homeless on the street!
