[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 156380, member: 3444"] Not too much information :) Sounds like your coping mechanisms just need a little fine-tuning. I struggle with the same thing sometimes. I don't like getting sucked into certain dramas because of how crazy it can make me feel, and so I also end up going the other direction as a form of self-preservation. I think it takes some practice in allowing yourself to experience your feelings, but then also to acknowledge that they are only feelings and that they will pass. I think it's good you have the self-awareness to see what's happening. Perhaps your therapist can give you some ideas on babysteps for working on this. [/QUOTE]
