I feel like I was sharing about emotional stuff, but not getting emotional, if you understand what I mean. Like I was afraid if I started really crying, then other stuff would come out.

Thanks, LT.

Missed this somehow last night.
R said she wanted me to be honest with her, at which point I thought 'No, you really effing don't.'

I'm glad you understand my avoiding emotional topics to feel more safe.
What R is asking of me feels very much like the opposite of what we have been working towards.

A lot of the time I am so detached that I struggle to identify what I am feeling.

Now I have all the feelings, but no physical safe space to process them.
