I want to be able to show emotion when speaking with my therapist. I was never allowed as a kid to show emotion so I have had plenty of time perfecting that. I know we can't move forward and talk about things if I can't open up. I have opened up about some abuse but it was like I was speaking of someone else and not me. I want to be angry, upset, and sad but I can't.
Has anyone else experienced this? What worked for you?
