Learning To Express

Dear June:

As your book suggests, I’m learning to be more vulnerable with my feelings in my relationship and express my true emotions to my partner (and also to my friends and family). I’ve been learning to be more honest with how I am feeling, too. Sometimes, though, I get the feeling that she doesn’t want to talk it out. Should I just keep sharing how I’m feeling and hope that through my sharing she will open up too? How do you think I could work on having more trust in myself? Do you think there is some way of possibly improving that?

A Great Depression

Dear June:

I recently went through a lot in my life and I keep on calling it: a great depression. It changed me in a way and into a person that I’m sure that I like. I was trying to be there for others. I can’t figure out how to get back to me. Is there something that I’m missing?
