I went thru this to due to being severly traumatized...I just numbed out so I couldn't feel anything, except for the joy I received from watching my children grow up (part of PTSD). I was in survival mode. With therapy and loving and caring people WE turned this around. I can feel now both the good feelings (comfort and joy), and the other type. The negative feelings had to be redefined for me to understand them. Like, tears sometimes are because it hurts.

Were you traumatized by someone or something? Are you being treated by your therapist for PTSD? As you learn to trust yourself and others, this will probably turn around for you, too.

With love.
