This, I think, for many of us is our path... to learn to feel emotion, openly even.

For me, shutting down emotionally is so ingrained in me that I can't even identify what I feel at any given moment. (At best, I have to really work hard at putting a name to an emotion... like a half hour or so, and then I generally just feel exhausted and frustrated from thinking so hard that those are the only feelings that I can identify, haha.) But also, when others display emotion it makes me uncomfortable; often I have to leave the area or turn off the TV, or whatever.

StarLight, you didn't do anything wrong... being incorrect isn't being wrong in any moral or ethical sense.
As children, suffering trauma, learning to shut down our emotions is a valuable survival technique. It got us through those difficult things that our young minds didn't have the education to process through very well. There's no shame in that either.

As adults, it's our burden to learn how to turn those very normal and need emotions... all of them, any emotion. To feel emotion and is vital to meeting life head-on and thrive, not merely survive. And it's not only a heavy burden but it's a difficult process... at least for me it is.
But IMHO, there is a rich and rewarding life out there for those who can feel and embrace those feelings and then move forward.

I would encourage you to go back to your T and tell them everything about this line of thought that you're dealing with. Tell them about this forum chatter too. Use strong words to express what you felt about the crying... maybe that it was repulsive and made you angry, etc. (Use your words, not mine.) I think by doing so will help your T realize where you are on your path to healing and learning to feel. (Just a suggestion.)
