Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

• When something hurts I feel my whole body clamp down against it, like if I tense hard enough it won’t get in
• I keep trying to shove this feeling down or talk myself out of it, and the harder I fight it the worse it gets
• The second a hard feeling shows up I clamp down on it and shove it away, but it just keeps coming back louder
• By the time I get to the people who matter I’ve got nothing left to give them
• I hold on to everything all day long
