Some of us are really suffering from this, in the sense that it's not only a missing element of daily life, a blown out lightbulb we could replace easily. For some of us, it's the material that had been left out from the construction of our being. Or severly reduced. So we feel it every day, the feeling without the thought, the pain without the name.
This is emotional deprivation disorder, and I am wondering what is the appropriate therapy to resolve this issue, I have been trying cognitive behaviour therapy but it doesnt work for me, so if somebody have a positive experience with any other kind of therapy please share it.

I have never heard of this disorder. Is it similar to borderline personality disorder?

Would "emotional deprivation disorder" be anything like Childhood Emotional Neglect?
