The unfortunate thing about locking strong emotional responses in a closet is that eventually the closet gets so full that it's impossible to close anymore, and you're forced to deal with the emotions you were trying to escape in the first place.
I'm so conditioned to expecting the worst from people and not trusting anyone, that when someone come along who seemingly wants to just make me happy, my immediate reaction is suspicion and anger (after all, how dare they make fun of me by pretending to care!??). Those patterns of thought take a very long time to change. But is it worth putting a door in my walls?
