I cried briefly about 3 weeks ago.
I think I've been in a state of shock and disbelief over something that has happened to me.
But it was when I was talking to my therapist, I effectively broke down because the realisation hit, that how I've been feeling is just resurfaced feelings from childhood.
To make things worse because I've been trying to remain strong I just didn't have the time practically to acknowledge my emotions.
I feel like for the most part I am emotionally numb, like I'm so used to being hurt that I pretty much just act like it didn't happen.
