I feel just like you sometimes, and have a similar past. Seven years of therapy, but now I just take medications. I can relate to everything you said exactly! I wonder if you have ever taken the Myers-Briggs test? Some of these symptoms also appear in people with the personality type INFP on the Myers-Briggs test. You can take the test online, and we could compare notes. What do you say?
Does anyone have severe problems with uncontrollable emotional pain, hurt or rage but have problems getting it out in a healthy way. When someone hurts me, it's like I'm overcome with deep immobolizing emotional pain that makes life very hard to deal with. It's like if I ever start crying, I won't stop. I have a problem with rejection, feel like people take their love away from me when they're angry, avoid confrontations at all costs, but it seems like it's always me that pays for the emotions involved. I'm afraid to let people know how things are because I'm afraid they won't understand. I've had depression for 31 years, been in therapy for 11 years and it's still hard to cope. There is such stigma regarding depression and all of it's components. It's like I have to pretend that things are fine when they're really not and that turmoil just eats at me inside. Just wondering if anyone else feels like this sometimes.
