Smiles for Miles :
I love this! I’m pretty sure I developed a coping skill as a child of genuinely not feeling the weight of my emotions until I’m alone. When something triggers a bit emotion and I’m around other people, the full intensity of the emotion won’t hit me until I’m alone. At that point it hits me like a ton of bricks, and plenty of times I’ll feel genuinely shocked at how strong the emotion actually is - sometimes even for things that make me feel really happy. I think it made it easier to “not need anything” when I was with others if I genuinely wasn’t feeling so sad or mad in the moment.

Thank you for this 🩷 I've been trying to heal this wound by imagining myself at my age being there for my younger self that went through this
