Thanks for this, I may look into EMDR after all. I don't cry, hardly at all. Sometimes I wish I would but I don't, or can't.

Sorry you got pissed and shaken by it. I'm pretty sure one of the reasons I don't cry is because I told myself one day when I was 11 and had been crying after my mother humiliated me that I was never going to feel like that again. Turned it off, but it's not subject to conscious control now and I can't turn it back on, even though I've pretty well dealt with feelings of having been humiliated, I think.
