[@minty143]

This is super long, thanks to anyone who can be bothered reading this. I've been bottling up my emotions for as long as I can remember, and now I can't stop. It's gotten to a point where it feels like I am just filtering out anything bad that happens, then burying it deep inside me. Because I've been doing this for so long, I physically will not let myself cry in front of people anymore, even if I really want to. I've been aware of myself bottling up emotions for a long time as well, and i've been attempting to find out why I'm experiencing this for so long... I've arrived at some kind of childhood neglect trauma??? I have all the symptoms, but i don't have a therapist to tell me whats rlly happening (cause I won't open up to my parents cause it just feels weird)... idrk, but the worst thing is, when I told my friend that I might possibly have trauma, and she said that I definitely don't, because I have such an amazing life, and that she has it way worse then me... wtf. I mean, she's my best friend and she doesn't even know me, because I fudging internalise all of my bad feelings 24/7, and she's here telling me that there's not possibly anything wrong with me. I just want to be seen, but she can't do that for me because I wont let her. After that conversation she went to sleep, and I had a mental breakdown, (kinda). I felt so much like crying, but I couldn't so I just lay there for 3 hours feeling a big black chasm open up inside me, and my sadness and anger washing over me like waves in the ocean, and all I could think was... Somebody get me a fudging therapist. Basically, I deal with all of my problems internally, by myself, cause thats just how i've done it for pretty much my whole life, and I really just want someone to notice that I'm dying inside, but the fact is that they never will because I hide it too well. Also, I only let myself feel these things during the night, when I'm alone, so I don't really feel any of these things during the day? Except with the 3rd person perspective thing, that happens to me a lot... It's weirdly specific ik, but just go with it. Pls like this comment if u can relate because I would really like to know if other people have this, or if i'm just special, yk? :)

[@nadinehannigan7914]

I honestly understand you right now. I’m maybe still in denial that I’ve had ‘trauma’. Once you bottle up your emotions as a child you then use that as your coping mechanism…. The only problem with doing that continuously is it’s damaging your mental health every day, trust me. I’ve walked around with my bottled up emotions for 10-15 years and it feels uncomfortable for me to even cry with a close friend watching. All emotions are valid, and all emotions need to come out. If bottling up your first negative emotional experience was your way of coping, that’s what you’ll continue to do untill it puts you into a dark place. I can’t express how to change this ongoing cycle, breaking down Infront of those you have around you and trust will benefit. I’m going through something similar and I understand the urge to bottle emotions with in you. But they have and will come out. Like mine have without me being able to control it. One huge thing is definitely acceptable that the way you originally coped with those negative emotions has lead you on an ongoing dark path. It’s painful but you must feel every emotion because they are valid and need to escape! If you’re anything like me it’s painful and extremely vulnerable/exposing to not only recognise an emotions but to let somebody else see it, but it’s what will get you though :)

[@sadia2395]

@Chelsee Sharma yeah its very annoyin really.Initially its disappointing when people we consider friends and family dont understand our issues,but later on it becomes annoying 😅.I really want to to say ' see,I understand that you feel moral obligation to ask if am ok, but the thing is,you dont understand,no matter how many times I explain and how earnestly I explain,so lets cut this BS and leave me alone' 😬 😅.In the past I have paid to be heard, I mean a counsellor haha.No drama there,no random baseless life coachin thrown like 'oh its only a miscarriage,complete social isolation,divorce and job loss.it isnt that hard,why cant u get over it'

[@ØØØ-y1u]

@@gojosgirl6487 what I hate is most parents get mad when we show negative emotion like crying or anger even if it’s towards them in a respectful way. I fully understand how that feels and words like that is the reason why I can’t show my emotion because I feel it’s a sign of weakness and I’m “just acting for attention”. I remember when my mom told me that I was acting for attention and from that day to now I don’t show anger or cry because I’m scared I’m acting for attention, hell I could cry when my grandma died. The only situations I’ll ever get close to crying is if I mess up at my new job because I feel like a failure when I make mistakes, I have been working at my job for 10 days now I have told my manager you can fire me if I mess up.

"Unexpressed emotions will never die. They are buried alive and will come forth later in uglier ways." - Sigmund Freud

[@Raidon484]

You know, there's a reason I wouldn't quote Freud. First up, let's say this is a personification: if you bury someone alive, they'll very much die. What? No, wait up: if you bury anyone alive, it means they're*alive*. This, it will die from suffocation. So... They will die if I bury them alive? Second: this guy is so overrated, it's not very wise to think too much about him if you ask me. During my psych lessons I was pretty much told that many things he said are outdated. Just if you wanted to know why I think this way

[@peanut.buhtur]

@@Raidon484 ever heard of a metaphor?? also u’ve got plenty of time to live before u finally die of suffocation whether u like it or not ur body instinctively will fight for survival as goes the metaphor of ur emotions fighting to get out of the dirt they were buried in. u can also think of it like a zombie. zombies aren’t exactly real and we’re not sure if Reanimation is even fully possible but it’s a big and well known concept that a zombie is a human that died and came back to life, or should i say: came forth later in uglier ways.

[@alanablack5712]

You just described my who life in a paragraph

[@divinitas]

I've been consciously bottling up my emotions since early childhood to avoid erupting conflict. I'm not really sure I can live any other way at this point. I always wait for that bottle to blow, but suppressing emotions is second nature, so it never does. I think I'm quite an emotional person, but only when I'm by myself, and I'm absolutely terrified of intimacy. Up to this point I never could openly express or talk about my emotions without prejudice, not even to my parents or a psychiatrist. I feel like I'm not actually living my life, more so just going along with whatever that ends a conversation or discussion the fastest. I want to live life as an actual person with substance, but it's becoming more and more apparent, that the hole I dug for myself is now inescapably deep. I don't know what to do, I feel so hopeless.

[@jorienwachukwu466]

I know how you feel I've had to bottle up my emotions for years because nobody has ever let me properly express them. Now it's to the point where I don't even feel comfortable just being vulnerable around someone or letting people know how I feel, and it doesn't help that my father doesn't listen to anything that I say. Whenever I try to tell him how he makes me feel with the things he does and/or says, he just gets mad and starts an argument or walks away, not even willing to just listen to me. The only person I can really talk to is my therapist, but it doesn't feel like enough. I want my parent to listen to me, to understand my feelings, but I know that won't happen, cuz he's too stubborn and self-centered.

[@divinitas]

@@jorienwachukwu466 It's such an icky situation. The only advice I can give is to maybe try seeing things from his perspective. To be clear, I don't know your dad, nor your relationship with him, but generally people from his generation were told to 'man up' and stop whining, so dealing with emotional vulnerability isn't his strong suit. He was only shown disappointment and rejection in his time of weakness, so that's the experience he draws from. That's just how it is with my father, and it's partially the reason for why I bottle up. Maybe talk to your therapist about this. I'm no professional, but they might be able to provide you with a better way to deal with this. You're lucky to have someone who can help, so don't pass up this opportunity.

Lately, I've been trying so hard to express my emotions instead of bottling them up, but it's hard to do that when it has been a habit for so long. I recall times that something small would happen, and I would break down into tears because that little thing was the straw that broke to camel's back. If my friends/family was there, they would keep asking me what was wrong, and I repetitively kept saying 'I don't know, I don't know!' because I felt like I really didn't know. Tears just came, and I couldn't do anything about it; all the emotion just came pouring out.

I think it’s best to keep them restrained and suppressed. It seems weak to show the symptoms of emotions e.g. crying when you’re upset. more often than not, I reckon you end up worse off than if you controlled it. Once you can control your emotions and look at situations logically and think clearly instead of acting off of impulse, you can get a lot more done, and many situations end up better for you. You can get what you want quicker and with greater chance of success if you think clearly instead of being weak and letting the emotions think for you.

So when my mom is yelling, I’ll try desperately not to cry, bc then she will be even more mad. It confuses me when she says is okay to cry. Once, I hit my head, and the pain was immense. I was trying so hard not to cry but then my mom said, “y’know, you can cry, if it hurts that bad” I was confused, but slightly glad to be able to express myself. But look on the bright side.

I never grew up in that situation, but I bottled up my emotions anyway because I felt like people would judge me. I knew that they weren't going to, but I hated crying in front of others, or admitting that I was stressed, angry, or confused in front of others. My friends always looked up to me because I was the mom of the friend group, so I wanted to seem responsible. And I was also the oldest sibling, and I always listened to my parents. They said that I should show a good example and that I was more mature. However, when I was 12, I started piano. I slowly started to hate doing it. I never told anyone, until one day I was practicing and finally decided that I shouldn't be doing stuff I didn't like doing because it brought me stress, anger, and sadness. I would always cry in my room alone after a lesson because I didn't want to do it anymore. So, I walked up to my parents. I couldn't really tell them at first, but then eventually I broke down crying, screaming that I didn't want to do piano anymore, I hated it, and that I can't be the perfect older example sibling that you hoped for. I told them how much stress this was causing me, it was messing with my grades, my health, and just everything. I cried for what seemed like a good 20 minutes because I just couldn't hold any of it in. And when I finally stopped, my parents fully supported me. They told me they didn't mean to make me feel that way, and told me that I could always talk to them if I needed to. I still bottle up my emotions a little bit, but I'm not afraid to cry in front of others or admit I have idea what I'm doing in front of others anymore. 😊

[@strawberrymilk._.]

anyone else here just very quietly cries in their room in the dark to not let any of their family members hear because they don't know how to tell them hello :), i would just like to make an edit to this, this is more than a year after i made this comment, and im actually kind of shocked by how many people relate to this so much so i just wanted to let everyone know that this is a perfect example of that you are not alone, we're all together in this so, if you would like to share a certain thing or feeling that you don't think you have anyone that can sit down and listen to you talk about you can share it here in the replies because i feel like we can all understand each other and how we're feeling, there will be zero judgement or anything if you're worries about that and i will read every single one of them and try to reply to them too if you would like, you're not alone in this we're all with you

I expressed that back then and they didn't understand. I lost them over it. Nowadays I have a really hard time with relationships. I'm alone most of the time, even tho there are people who like me. It never seems enough tho.

I feel this too especially because in all my friend groups ive been the one intruding after already establish inseparable friendships have been made and it feels like I’m just watching their friendship.

[@AppleOfIdunn]

I have problems making friends because I've been hurt so many time (If anyone is uncomfortable with rants then just scroll along). I'm currently home schooled because there were some problems with bullying and lack of proper care from teachers but I had a pretty nice friend group, I thought that it would be that bad because I assumed they would still wanna hang out during weekends and I had their numbers, Although then they just stopped talking to me, they wouldn't come to my birthdays and they wouldn't even invite me to theirs. The only friend I had eventually started to ignore and avoid me but when I eventually left him then he started trying to get me back, I didn't except and now I don't have contact with him anymore, but now from all this rejection, I have this one friend now who lives in a whole different country and now I'm going to this home schooling centre and meeting with some new people

the 3rd person perspective is really striking cause i feel like i’m an option, instead of a priority with my friends. it feels like i’m just there to spectate them having fun because it feels like they’re better friends with each other always having something to say, even when i try to speak up sometimes i get overshadowed by someone speaking louder. Even when i’m enjoying myself it doesn’t feel real at times

I can totally relate it seems like they're better off without me sometimes cause they know what to talk about with each other and seem as if they're better friends with each other. I get jealous sometimes and I feel bad for doing that. It's so easy for them to talk to others and each other and I feel so left out sometimes, like I'm not even there or wanted, they care about me a lot i just don't know anymore. It's like one friend is holding the entire friend group together.

[@Error_707.]

Man... Must've been tough, most of the time to me, I was just scared to cry in front of people, friends, strangers, and my family. Mostly because it's embarrassing and the more they try to comfort me the more I cry, and when I can't shut my mouth they start dissing me like how I'm overdramatic and that I should shut up. So I just feel like I'm not allowed to cry, so when I get yelled at, hit at, or talked trash about, it's okay, I just go and try not cry... Until it just hits me all at once, and go to the restroom and try to stop my crying and hiccups, and everytime I make a noise... Like a hiccup from crying so much I immediately shut my mouth scared that someone will hear me. Literally happened today when I was tired of my mom's attitude...
