I had this really intense conversation with my mother last Friday, saying a lot of things that I'd been wanting to say to her for a long time. And the day after, I was just kind of reeling. I couldn't name a single emotion I was experiencing. It took a couple of days before I could even pull out a single thing that bothered me, or that I needed to consciously think about further. It can take a long time to work through things in the back of your brain.
