Why is expressing my emotions so difficult? - Egghead - Oct 21, 2015

I've always found it hard to convey how I feel, and I was wondering if anyone could offer any insight as to why that might be the case.

Also, if you're feeling extra giving, maybe you can share some tips on how I can express my emotions more effectively.

Well you're certainly good at expressing fear and embarrassment.

Think with your mind and heart. Not with your dick.

Not to be rude, but what do you mean exactly?

Do I seem afraid to you? If I was afraid, I would lack the conviction to post a public thread asking for help to improve myself emotionally.

Do I seem embarrassed to you? If I was embarrassed, I would be too ashamed to go out of my way to change.

Doesn't work this way.
I'm shy and also unable to express my feelings 'properly' in 'real-life'.

But creating threads,chatting or talking online is a different thing.
(Even though for me sometimes I feel shy/'afraid' to skype with random people)

Do you struggle to feel empathy/sympathy for others?
You MIGHT have alexythemia.

Try this test, Obviously this isn't gonna 100% define if you have it or not but I got 3 away from the top mark, and then got it confirmed.

I don't get what this has to do with what you quoted.

I'll try out that test.

I think I'm sympathetic, but I lack empathy.
