Is it better to harden your heart up or allow yourself to feel all of your crazy emotions?

You just have to remember to use your brain. Because feelings are impulsive & you shouldn’t always act on them as soon as you feel them. Rationalize what’s appropriate & what’s not appropriate.

And it’s good to harden up. But it’d be even better if you had the ability to just flip the switch off when you feel safe. You can’t be tough all the time.
