Good to hear from you, I'm glad you're doing so much better!

About alexithymia... It's not just an inability to verbally express how you're feeling, it's also an inability to even be aware of your feelings, physically or emotionally. That's my problem - emotional problems hit me physically, in cases where I'm not aware of feeling anything emotionally. Not saying it's a factor in your case, just clarifying the definition.

Take care & hope you continue to feel better!

Thank you. Emotional problems definitely express themselves physically in my body.
