YB44,
Thanks for responding. I didn't know why some people had loads of replies but mine not so much. I was wondering if I used the wrong procedure for posting. If you or anyone can help me find a way to deal with the pain, I would appreciate it.

In my less painful moments I try to use the techniques, telling myself that I am on to the pain, it is suppressed emotions, but when I am in pain it is hard to talk to myself. The pain is too raw. I lost my brother 3 months ago. He was my only sibling. He was younger than me. Our mother died 2 years ago. My brother and I used to visit it her every day and it brought us closer than ever. When he was married to his 2 wives , we were not very close. I know I have repressed anger from that since I could not waste time with him rehashing old wounds. Now in retrospect, I am glad I never broached the subject of feeling rejected when he was married.

The idea of repressed emotions has me somewhat confused because I am a fairly introspected person who usually is aware of my emotions and the cause of them.

This has stumped me.

Thanks for responding. Hope we can keep in touch.
