Ugh...with all the work I have done on myself, the one thing I have not fully gain control over is my "switch". I find it ridiculously easy that when someone behaves badly to cut them out of my life without explanation by simply flipping this switch and say ....next. At first I thought it was a healthy thing to do but it's not. It's not allowing me to recognize my feelings/emotions, it simply allows me to shut them off.

With that said, I guess I should set all joking aside and stop making comments such as I have a heart that is 3 sizes too small and one feeling. Or that I am indeed dead inside.

I do on most days try my hardest now to let myself feel, and to work through each detail and feeling in a time frame that works for me. It's hard but someones gotta do it. Blerg.

Feelings, nothing more than feelings.

Oh, I know exactly what you mean. I've had a "tendancy" to do that over the years, and now I don't even want to get close to anyone. Lots of hugs to you and welcome to the forums.

Thanks short and cute. I do not stop myself from getting close to anyone, its what I am capable of when they hurt me. I am trying so hard to just work through my feelings instead of flicking that switch cuz it is so unhealthy to just shut'er down.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
