A Distant Inner Sadness

  • Feeling like you want to cry, but you can't. It feels like there is a deep, distant sadness somewhere inside that rises to the surface in glimpses. And that's exactly what it is. A reservoir of repressed feelings of abandonment, neglect, hopelessness, despair, or frustration, enters our conscious minds in small amounts.
    It is like the inner child, who is holding onto old pain, rises to the surface. We might think "what's going on with me?" "am I numb?" "I want to cry, but I can't". It can be a confusing experience. I go into detail in this video.

      @@girthquake2390 that's fukn harsh. You should fr speak with someone. It's a good metaphor, "tip yourself over the edge to let it all out", like a glass filled w/ water that needs to pour out or it will overflow. It's a good metaphor, but as a reality, potentially very toxic. If you let your friends decision be the thing that helps you move more towards the light, you'll be redeeming his memory. If you don't try to make meaning out of it that way, it will fester and infect you more.

      Don't take too much pressure from it, and trust in your ability to express your pain in the right place, time and condition. We all have that ability, for some it may be less apparent than for others, and that's completely okay. Just know that there is nothing wrong with you for feeling numb.

    This is something that I've been trying to understand about myself for a very long time. I have alot of different traumas from childhood and I have a veey damaged inner child. I feel like I can't cry over anything. Even when im in a situation where it's normal for someone to cry or become upset, i just physically cannot cry. It really bother me often times and i wish that i could just fully release all of my emotions.

    Thank you david. I just went upt from bed sitting down with the feelings. I experienced it in the last times exactly the way you talked about. It is childhood pain and I resonate with the feeling of wanting to cry. You helped me now again with the reminder that nothing is wrong here. Being just present with the feeling and allow us to feel as full as we can is the most important thing I think.Thank you David for a perfect reminder and I wish you all the best, if you want tell me/us a little bit more of your story,..

    Since high school and into my early adulthood, I’ve noticed this pattern. Sometimes my eyes will water, and every few months, I find a way to lure it out. Like repeating a certain string of words that feel heavier and heavier with each repetition. It always feels like I’m clogged up, though, like the sadness refuses to leave. Sometimes, I feel like I don’t deserve to cry, like I can’t mentally justify or make sense of these emotions. I’m in an 18-month relationship now, but this emptiness is becoming harder to ignore. It’s sickening, painful, and so incredibly draining.

    • @CoachDavidAdes
      @CoachDavidAdes  2 місяці тому

      good work so far. it makes sense that the emptiness is becoming harder to ignore while you're in a relationship. Over time, as you continue to grow closer to one another, your "shadow" elements will become more and more apparent. This is a great thing! If you have the courage to face the inner conflict, if you are willing to get yourself the support you need, if you can set the intention of doing whatever you have to do to "heal". It sounds like you're dealing with deep, deep anxiety. It's good that you're this observant and psychologically-minded. You would do yourself a favor by gearing yourself more towards this kind of inner work. Dedicate time and space to figuring out what that means, what it looks like, etc. There's nothing more important in life, and refusing this part of you only perpetuates the cycle. I know that it's hard.

      Trauma is not only a result of life-tragedies. There certainly is another reason. When you work with someone like myself, or a therapist, you bring the details of your life, and I bring the discerning eye. Together we find the reason. Thank you for commenting.

      I understand. You can't repress the bad ones without repressing the good ones. Maybe it's more like *you've been repressing the part of you that feels* (good, bad, and everything). The metaphor is the heart, no? The "heart" is "repressed"

    I’ve had so much trauma happen my whole life. I don’t know how to cry, but the last 7 days have been some of the worst all at one time , tornado hit my house, threatened with my job. My ex just put an ad for himself on a singles group , which my friends thought was a good idea to share with me, my moms husbands daughter today tried to pose as me and have her put in a nursing home for the rest of her life while she moved into the house and I’m 3k miles away. It’s too much for one week really.
