i know that title by itself sounds kinda corny but i recently can't really tell which of my feelings are real and which aren't. i pretend around people and my parents a lot so they don't suspect that anything might be wrong in my life and i feel like ive grown so much into that playing that i don't know if im able to express any real emotions anymore. im tired of pretending : (

i apologize if this might sound a little stupid

It doesn't sound stupid at all 🩵

Your feelings are valid.

And it's important to be honest.

We have to feel what we feel so as not to bottle things up 🩷

@foolivory It doesn’t sound stupid at all. It might be actually beginning of some new wisdom. You are noticing something true about you. You wrote you doubt if you still are able to express your real emotions. I believe it could be a little clumsy at first but you would figure it out with someone safe supporting you 😊 Maybe the listeners on 7 cups can help…
