I don't like starting threads (unless it's a couch ) but T said something interesting to me yesterday that has really made me think and I wanted to share and the couch is the only place I can share T related things.

She asked me to explain how I was feeling/thinking etc and I said I don't have words and I'm tired of not having words all I know is *lists physical feelings*. T asked if I knew why that was? I told her no but it's frustrating to not have words for things I feel should have words for. Her explanation was very interesting. She said when a kindergartner is upset how do they tell you they're upset? They don't say they are upset because they don't really know what the definition is. They will say they have a tummy ache. So for me not knowing is okay, I haven't learned yet how to explain my feelings except for physical reactions and the physical reactions give her a lot of information.

Anyway, I thought it was interesting. I probably didn't explain it well but wanted to share anyway.
