This says it better than I can!

I would ask my doc what definition he is using. I think the term was originally meant to indicate an organic brain condition in which emotion can not be recognized rather than emotional repression in which the emotion is able to be recognized but that recognition is supressed.

Emotional suppression might respond to psychological intervention.
