I think I might have Alexithymia.
I’m not 100% sure yet. So I wanted to come on here and ask
I certainly do struggle to speak my emotions often. I can identify some of the emotions I’m feeling, like sad, or happiness. But a lot of the other times I have no clue why it is or why I’m acting a certain way
The best example I think I could provide after thinking for a bit is. I’m commonly laid on my bed, I think frustrated, sad, or anxious. I think I’m swapping between them or I can’t get an exact feel on which one. But I just lay there for hours on end thinking of different scenarios and actions to take within my life.
I’ve never tried really including my feeling whenever I’m in that thinking state, as I usually just ignore how I’m feeling since I don’t really understand what I’m specifically feeling nor does it feel like I have any time to do anything about it.
This has kind of turned into a super rant, but I just want some opinions.
