I've been hiding from emotions for so long, I can't even put names to the faces, so to speak. If I am overwhelmed by a HUGE tide of emotion (as with the sudden loss of a loved one) I can feel it and know it for sadness/anguish for a brief time. But mostly I just feel like I'm wrapped in bubble-wrap. Nothing touches me.
Except.... I cry at the drop of a hat. I don't feel sad when I'm crying, I just cry.
Aww, the little girl in the cartoon found her lost kitty. *cries*

I can feel irritation but only after a whole lot of provocation.
Most of the time, I just feel numb. And depressed. I don't know how to sort of get in touch with what I'm actually feeling - and I've been this way to some degree for as long as I can remember. When I was younger it was a lot easier to irritate me, and I didn't used to cry easily, but I've been hiding emotions and physical sensations for a really really long time and I just don't remember how to feel them, I think.
I don't know how to fix this... any suggestions would be welcome!
