Hi, I'm wondering if anyone in this forum can relate to anxiety due to difficult emotions. I can go through a day feeling pretty good...and then suddenly, like today, I'll read something or hear something that makes me sad/angry/overwhelmed. Today I read an article about someone describing the passing of his father. I'm anxious, worried, and not quite sure what it is. I really have a hard time with strong emotions. I try and tell myself that it's ok, difficult emotions are a part of life, but I still get this sense of fear and sadness that I can't shake. Why am I so afraid to be sad? To experience emotions? Can anyone relate to this??
