i think half of it is trying to admit it to myself! it's like i shouldn't feel x so i won't feel it. except i am feeling it, i'm in just utter denial. i learned at a young age that certain emotions weren't okay so i just disconnected them. or rather i just trained my head not to pay attention.
therapy is tough!
