Cuz one t told me she was taught never to ask a question if she didnt already know the answer altho I dont know if that applies for how do you feeeeel questions. Sorry for butting in there, the question made me anxious!
hankster, I get you! If I were answering T, I'd have to say the physical stuff because she asks "what do you feel IN YOUR BODY?" I have trouble identifying my feelings, let alone where I feel them in my body!!

The question made me feel anxious too, partially because I was wondering if others think it's NOT a boundary crossing, that I'm making a big deal over nothing, for drama, or if it's SO obvious a boundary crossing that people pity me.

But I pushed asides those concerns and answered what I really do feel, which is a combination of a lot of feelings. Like I told T, the feelings are swirling around in my brain.
Thanks for this!
