I am not great at feeling my feelings either. My preferred mode is head down, work harder but I'm working on being able to be more openly sad or angry when those feelings come. It is shockingly hard sometimes. I'm sorry that The Thing happened but I'm glad you had a good friend and soft pants and some time to work through it.
