Pam... I know EXACTLY what you mean !!!
Talking about my "feelings" is VERY HARD for me too.
As a child growning up we were not allowed to have feelings... heaven forbid we "express" them.
My dad was a career serviceman and he told us what we felt.
Then I married a man at age 18 who did not want to know what I was "feeling".
He still to this day will not "talk" out problems. Heck.. he won't listen either. LOL
I am sooooooo PROUD of you for taking that scarey step of expressing yourself.
It will get easier the more you do it.
Just tonight I told my husband... "you may not listen.. but I AM going to finish my thought."
Keep up the progress !!!! Expressing yourself PLUS not eating over it..... I am soooo proud of you.
