      Ikr?? I just sit there feeling like a ghost. Like i don't exist. It's the worst feeling bc emotional numbness happens when you're being exposed to something toxic for your mental health. You may be a victim of abuse or smth and years or months later you become numb. It doesn't bother you at all anymore. You barely feel anything.

    Personally, I hate being vulnerable to people. Like just having my feelings out there makes me feel like I’m not in control of that and they can use that against me or would end up telling someone I don’t really feel comfortable sharing that with. Im also scared of looking weaker than I already am. I want to open up to people so bad but whenever I do, I end up feeling bad about it later and I won’t be able to stop thinking about it.

      Can I just say I know exactly how you feel, I have almost never been free to express myself in my own family because I immediately get shut down and told I'm wrong and shouldn't be feeling what I am. Ever since all I can do is repress all of my feelings, so I don't make mistakes or look weak and unable to do things. To top it all off, I can never admit that to my parents because I'm afraid they will do what they always do, or I could get punished for saying things like this. I don't need people to tell me what is right and what isn't, I want someone who will listen to and understand what I'm going through.

      I have found that completely ignoring emotion, nor acknowledging them, nor displaying them, makes for a very simple life. Sure, this means that nobody will like me. It appears people want to be friends with emotional people and have a mate that is emotional. But it also assures that I will be impossible to be emotionally injured ever again. With nobody in my life, such as friends, family, or a girlfriend, there is nobody in my life to devastate me emotionally again. Being social has very little benefits. But it has a lot of disadvantages, dangers, and unpredictability. I believe I chose the safer and better path by no longer being social. The last time I was in a social setting was 8 August 2000. I care not to repeat any of the emotions stimulated back then by my girlfriend of the time nor my friends of the time. This is why I have no friends nor a girlfriend.

    I feel the worst thing is when you actually open up and express yourself, everyone starts either judging you or telling you "they understand what you're feeling" and maybe...it just makes you feel worse than before.
    Also, I think that it hasn't been mentioned but in my opinion, by being a "pleaser" I often tend to feel more depressed or anxious than others, just saying, the environment you grow can seriously harm you... and last but not least I think that people that say to they're children being selfish is bad, isn't good, you can't be always unselfish or you'll end up bottling up you're emotions(and becoming a pleaser) and eventually exploding and blaming it on someone else when it actually was your fault for not saying anything, it's a lesson you should unlearn, I'm not saying you should be completely selfish, just take some alone time and breath, also I wanted to thank Psych2Go because it has helped me a lot through quarantine, hope you read this!
    Edit: Here's an interesting anecdote, this happened a couple of years ago, I was 9 years old, I have always wanted to be the best at everything, why? Because...well my sister is really awesome great, grades, great looks, great future, but it doesn't mean I'm jealous of her, quite contrary, I look up to her, since my sister is well awesome, I started putting a lot of pressure to myself to become PERFECT, and that ended up...well affecting my own mother's thoughts whenever I got below a 95 she would say horrible things to me and start comparing me to my sister or some friends. So, when me and my Family moved to Mexico, I had a really hard time, more pressure to please was being added (I was known as the extroverted daughter with thousands of friends) by having to get my grades up, having friends, taking care of my cat, having to deal with everyone in my school who took advantage of me, and faked being my friends just for me to help them on exams or homework, and it felt...good...but inside empty, I bottled everything up, til one day...a friend (he was a real friend) of mine said I ran slower than a turtle, and I just couldn't take more abuse, I skipped P.E and locked myself in the bathroom as I cried and cried, and I got help....from the psychologist and some real friend, but you know what my mom said? Oh get over it, you want to add depression to everything, and worst you looked yourself in a bathroom what is this going to do to your reputation! My dad didn't say that much, he just thought I was seeking attention, my sister...well not much just a plain, but kind of sentimental "Get better, and I'm sorry for you". This event til this day has got me confused, I feel like I can't tell anyone because I'm just seeking attention, like my parents said, but... whoever is reading this comment please seek help, I'm sure more one loving person will be able to help at least a little bit, but you have the power! Xd I just sounded like a energetic drink commercial.
    Well, I guess that's all, thank you for all your likes and replies I have never had so much likes, and get better pleaseeee, oh and listen to music it definitely calms me, lots of thanks and I'm really glad I was able to take this out of my chest, you guys should try commenting, maybe you won't have someone you know who understands you, but there is definitely someone around the world who will ( I remember it from a Psych2Go video I think) well bye! (⌐■-■)(=^・ェ・^=)(◍•ᴗ•◍)❤
    Edit 2: Wow! I never thought I would get so many likes, literally it has made my day better, thank you all for your likes and I really hope you guys can eventually understand you're worth something, and sometimes even if you don't have someone by your side physically, you can always take a deep breath and relax, believe me, you'll eventually find someone who understands you, and you'll feel a lot more relieved. Thanks, Bye~

      I am so confused about my mom still calls me selfish when I try my best to please others. She calls me selfish on just really little things that I forgot to please, or something that I really don't want to do. Such as I didn't share my food back that I think that is disgusting to share with others, because it may contain my saliva, while the other person shared some candies with me. I'm a member of my school volunteer team and I joined all of the volunteer work that's avalible. I can't understand why I'm called selfish by my mom. But I had some fun in the volunteer work though. I actually think that my mom is more selfish that me cus she vent her emotions on me.

      You are spot on. Even though I try to help ninety-nine times out of one hundred, that one hundredth time when I decide to do something for myself, I am labelled as selfish and it’s regularly thrown back at me.
      Other instances occur when I have made an arrangement to do something and then with almost no warning, someone has asked me to fix a problem they have created for themselves and when I politely explain that I’m busy at that time, they label me as selfish and always thinking of myself and not others.
      It seems like an exaggeration but it happens more often than you think.

    @siIhouettes 4 роки тому +239

    It's just that, I don't feel like I can express my emotions to anybody. Everytime I actually do, I feel like they always make it seem small or invalidate me. So I just don't, because I feel like they won't understand what I'm going through, which is why most of my responses to my friends asking me if I'm okay is "yee, i'm fine!! :)". It's also because I don't want to burden them with my problems, I don't want to see them get in my mess because of me because it makes me feel really guilty, especially if they have their own problems to deal with.
    So this is why I become sort of a therapist to my friends. I want them to overcome their problems, I give them lots of good advice, and check on them once a week. Because if I don't, I feel like it's my fault that they're struggling because I'm not giving them a hand. I feel guilty because I don't help them, so I just do, even if it hurts me in the process, I want to see them be happy. It's my responsibility to make sure my friends are okay, because who else will check in them? I don't follow my own advice, so I feel hypocritical, and I lie to my friends saying that I'm fine when I'm clearly not. It feels wrong, but it's for the better.
    Sorry for the vent, haha, I'm not used to venting to other people or on social media. I usually vent on the Internet because I'm anonymous. Also, thank you for making these videos, Psych2Go, they help me a lot, and I use what I learn from here when I check up on my friends. Thanks a lot!

    I started repressing my emotions when I was 8 or so (I'm 15 now)... my parents were divorcing and I had to appear stable in order to not bring more problems (my sister was also diagnosed with bipolar disorder at the time).
    I would never allow myself to cry or feel down, I just bottled everything up. Until this quarantine, when I had a lot of time with myself and my emotions.
    They started to come out very aggressively and trust me, it doesn't feel nice. Now I'm slowly trying to talk and communicate more, even though it's very hard, so yeah guys, we're in this together, I believe in you

    I exactly related to this. Being the responsible, smart and independent child, no one ever did care if I was alright or not, If I was down or not. Everyone believed that I'll be able to get through it easily or that I'll be able to solve it by myself since I was independent. So I always felt like it is necessary to hide my distress, anxiety or fear because I am always the leader. I have to hide it because it is my responsibility to be the one who would always get the hard stuff because they think that emotionally I am stronger than my friends or siblings. And that even if I did try to give clues that I needed help, they would just ignore it and even sometimes would make me feel bad about having to be sad or doubtful. That and the feeling that I cant do anything wrong, that my work is always either perfect or early since they always count on me. So instead of expressing my emotions, I mask myself witha smile and a goofy and charming personality.
    Lmao sorry for the rant, I just wanted to get this out of my chest.

    The adjective repressed often describes emotions or desires, especially those that could be considered shameful or distressing. When an emotion is repressed, you hold it inside so you don't have to show how you feel. Sometimes you aren't consciously aware that you're doing it👍

    I hate it when the internet knows about and understands me more than the people around me, including my own parents. I hardly show my emotions, especially anger because it creates an unhealthy environment and my family doesn't like it when I express anger regarding literally anything. So I am basically quiet and unresponsive to things and they like it that way but when I suddenly get very angry (it's like my anger erupts like a volcano, it feels like blasts), suddenly I am the bad person and I feel very guilty afterwards. I hate it so I have distanced myself from people as much as I can

Thank you for helping me find out.

    Listen to “How are You” by Soko Reminded me of this instantly. I laughed at the last one. Because it’s so true. I grew resentment, and always repressed myself because I always put everyone first. Otherwise I would be called selfish amongst other things. I know it’s part of yourself trying to survive and keep going but you will....you will break. My confession here, is that everything I’ve done to help myself this point has been through these videos. I can’t afford health insurance but lately I’ve been reevaluating myself and the damages I’ve been out through. It’s been a scary process. There’s sometimes I still cry. But I want everyone to know, that you have that power too. Change.... Change took me 7 long years. Even more. To start putting myself first, and loving myself with the littlest things. I wanted to thank the makers of their channel, and most certainly tell anyone here that they’re not alone. And that I believe in them too.

Recently I have tried to express my feelings more and more because holding it will make me crazy. I’m overthinking constantly and having a really bad time. When you have the need to share your emotion, just share it with people you are close with. Don’t be afraid of someone elses judgement, it is about you. Having feelings is not a crime, it is human. Holding it back and repressing it will only make it worse and as Sigmund Freud said: it will come back in uglier way.

    i grew up with parents that tried so hard to make me emotionally repressed, but i turned into a person who does the opposite lol i love when people express themselves, it shows me they are in touch with their deepest selves, theyre empathetic, and they are trusting. im a prek teacher and if i was emotionally repressive, i feel i could not do my job appropriately and could not address things that need to be addressed, such as getting children to understand their own emotions and how to work with them. when a kid cries in class, it shouldnt be seen as a big deal, just take them into the hallway, talk about how they feel, why they feel it, and how they can manage it, and theyre fine. emotions are like a roller coaster, they can build and build but eventually that pressure will fall, the momentum of ones deepest internal struggles will come crashing down, and all of their thoughts and feelings go all over the place. i realized this when dating my boyfriend who is very emotionally repressive. he will laugh and laugh when i get mad at him, but eventually, i can tell the exact moment when hes about to burst and his emotions come out through sudden rage. its like something snapped inside him. he never cries, hates showing vulnerability, and on the outset, you would think he is just boring with how he describes himself as "a robot". however, i know hes not, because he comforts me when im upset, he does nice things for me, and he shows affection in ways that i realize ive been lacking all my life. i know he has a heart. he just seems to fear showing it a lot of the time. im a very highly senstive person, so i show my emotions very easily. they slip out but i dont care. ive stopped caring. because i hope that the people who are more emotionally repressive will come to trust that there are people out there who wont judge them for simply showing that theyre human. when a baby is born, they cry if they are alive. it just shows us that we are living, and we will be okay.

I don't know if I'm supposed to feel better after expressing myself, but I have never felt relieved or better after expressing myself to them. Are you not supposed to ? I genuinely don't know. I only express myself to them when I physically can't hold emotions in anymore, or when they ask me about what I'm feeling.

      He didn't convey his emotions or thoughts in the best way it seems. :/ I think it's best to have a conversation with him to let you know that you didn't appreciate what he said. What do you think?

    This describes my ex girlfriend pretty much(we recently broke up). I love her and she’s not a terrible person in reality but a lot of her indifference lead to apathy and I just couldn’t take it anymore. It just damaged the relationship between us and was leading nowhere whenever it gets brought up. I’d like to be with her but there needs to be a change and a decent amount of that is going to have to come from her being able to face herself, her emotions and talking about them

    Ya’ll have no idea how hard it is to almost fall asleep and then have a part of yourself call you a name which brings a wave of negative emotions and memories (all I need is to hear the word hypocrite and I can’t sleep.)
    The worst part? I can’t tell anyone. I have no idea how people can trust someone to talk to. I can barely trust my cousins for a hug with no tricks.

      I don't have depression, but I do have a chronic illness that has me bedridden, so I also feel uncomfortable being asked. If I'm too honest, that just instantly brings down the mood of the conversation. It's one thing if you're having a bad day or something specific happened, but when your answer is always awful... I dunno, I just don't want to be that gloomy person who always brings everyone else down, so I tell half-truths or give vague answers a lot. I'm guessing it's the same for being depressed?

      @@piyushshah4638 I'm not sure I understand what you're asking. (I have cognitive difficulties so that could just be my fuzzy brain). How I usually answer the question is to frame it relative to my "normal" or just skip it by saying "I'm happy to see you!" So better than normal I might say "pretty good" even though physically I feel like death, and worse than normal I might say "more tired/in more pain/having a flare up, but I'll be okay." Sometimes I'll be super honest because I feel the need to be, but I try to limit how often I get like that and keep it to just my husband, parents, and doctors. I also vlog a little bit about it because I figure that's one way for me to speak honestly about what I'm going through and people can choose whether they want to hear it or not instead of just dumping on them without warning.

    One thing this video does not talk about is when your emotions are mocked as a child. When people laugh at you for being angry or upset when you are little - or worse try and make you laugh at yourself this can be very painful and terribly humiliating. I suspect there are families where lack of respect for emotions and mocking strong feelings runs down the generations. The parents mock their chidlrens feelings because their feelings too were not taken seriously either. It is important to put this into context. Behaviour is very different from feelings. There are certain forms of behaviour - especially psychological bullying or physical aggression and other forms of abuse which are simply never acceptable. But feelings are one thing and behaviour is something else. It is important a lot of the time to discipline our behaviour but a feeling is a feeling and is beyond judgement. But how often have we paused before telling people our feelings in case we get judged or preached at (there is nothing worse than preaching at the converted if you are one of the converted and someone addresses you as an ignoramus) One thing I think that is important to remember is that if you love someone then that is your right. It is not for anyone else to judge you or tell you to get over it or that you should not be feeling this way because it is silly and they don't love you and you don't really know them. If there is a planet where romantic love is logical it is not this one. You can be very aware your feelings are not logical but you cannot switch them off like a light switch. All you can do if the situation is very dire and they are with someone else in a serious relationship is remove yourself from the situation and keep as busy as possible. But it is about self compassion. Not spoiling yourself - but self compassion. Then eventually the feelings will subside. Of course if you love someone that does not mean that you can behave towards them just as you choose. If you do love someone who does not love you then treating them and their wishes and the wishes of their partner with utter respect is the most constructive thing to do. But to feel love towards someone - that is a right. Let no-one mock you or put you down because of it - or preach things at you that you are already supremely aware of.

    "emotional repression" applies differently to different peoples circumstances . people line up to get exploited, people that show weakness get exploited. it is just life. people put up these barriers to mitigate these problems in stead of standing up for themselves and not setting real boundaries. its is a real passive way of dealing with your life. people will betray one another on MANY different levels. yes, repression of emotions can lead to mental instability but so can getting taken advantage of. there is always a reason for why people don't show their emotions, and confiding in other people sometimes IS NOT AN OPTION. the best way to deal with it is, own it. realize that you need to take a stand. take the time to make yourself better. don't be a victim. "don't be a rabbit"

    the worst thing is when you KNOW that you're repressing your emotions, but can't do anything against it because repressing them feels more natrual than letting them out, to the point where you become unable to NOT repress them. unable to feel your emotions, because that was what was safest most of your life.
