Dear Elie:

You shared that you are coming out of a recent heartbreak and getting back to your old self, only your old self  always  felt lonely, disassociated from people and surroundings, not capable of being understood because of “complications inside”, having feelings too deep to be comforted.

“how I’m supposed to accept this feeling”?-  accept that the complications are there and undo the complications, bit by bit, until it’s simple. And then, the deeper feelings will not be overwhelming.

“Have you ever felt like this?”- yes. After adequately understanding the complications inside me, I feel much better, no longer so different from other people, no longer strange and out of place.

If you would like to share about the time the first complications came to be, early in your life, at home, where you grew up- please do, and I will reply to you further.
