suffocating? u bet it is. i could hardly breathe.
if this is the case, then i encourage you to get to know your emotions... learn to acknoledge them, diferentiate them from one another... eventually you will know what causes them and know yourself better... with all these understanding, you will be able to cope with them and wont be so suffocated... you will be able to make good use of your emotions and not be ruined by them... eg. when you know that the emotions torturing you is guilt, and where the guilt comes from, it will be easier for u to tackle it, isnt it??? dont run away from your emotions... everything are present as they have a purpose to serve... u may not know it only... "whatever u see may not be all there is, whatever u dont see may be present, just that u havent seen them"
I was like u in the past... now trying my best to know them... at least i can differentiate liao... though intense emotions still overwhelm me, esp guilt, but i dont have suicide thoughts yet...
good luck
