new here, but i'm confused and upset

[Sandrine]

 i find that repressed feelings always come out someday or somehow through behavior. could be a passive aggressive demeanor, could be a smoking or drinking habit, thrill-seeking behaviors, who knows? i think the other consequence of repressing feelings for men is that it can be challenging for us to identify and communicate our needs or effectively validate the needs of others. but love and excitement are difficult to bury. 

 
And don't forget the mental and physical health consequences of repressing feelings.  Eventual high blood pressure, cholesterol, heart issues, cancer, depression, other ailments.
