It may not be, and I hope it's just self preservation that's cut off my feelings some.
My therapist always says feeling love isn't as important as doing love and that I'm good at doing love even when I don't feel it. I think that's unbelievably silly. Doing love may be important, but feeling love is the emotional payoff.
You really ought to bring Babble to your sessions if it's an important part of your life. It was a little hard initially to discuss it with my computer illiterate and internet suspicious therapist, but I think it really paid off. Not only because he helps me process Babble trauma, but also because Babble is a rich source for mining the depths of my own psyche. If I bring in a post, or tell him about a post, that someone else wrote, there's generally a good reason why it resonates with me.
