No, i'm the type of person that lets all her feelings out. Ask anyone :)
-
I suppose it depends on the situation, but my feelings right now are completely open.
-
Completely. I have schizoid personality disorder and the very nature of the beast is that you repress your emotions to the point you convince everyone, including yourself, that you are somehow "above" human emotion. I've even been known to say that "feelings" was just a new-age invention of the psychiatry community to bring money into the system. :P
-
Most of the time I let my feelings show totally; unless I am in a place it will cause problems!!
-
Not if I'm around people I am close with.
-
Sometimes it is because, if you are too open, people assume things and judge too harshly. Sometimes we feel things that we can not control but know if we express them there is a much higher rate it won't be accepted.
-
Yes, usually because it's tough for me to even explain or comprehend how I feel. I've always struggled with that. I emote very well - people always know when I'm upset. I can just never put a reason on it.
-
Yes, everything but anger and happiness. If I'm hurt, it comes out as anger. Confused, anger. Tired, angry. Irritated, anger. Happy, well then I'm happy. It's actually very easy to make happy, it's holding on to that happiness that's the tough part. I think that's where peace of self comes into play. Sometimes I have to delve deep to find the whys of how I feel. I also deal with so much depression I have to not focus on it. I'm only just realizing how much it colors my days. Goodness, this was way too honest! It's because it's your question, CG. :)
-
SH*T no ;)
-
No, I'm very open with my feelings.
-
On some subjects but I have no problems giving my opinions in general. On the most personal subjects I prefer my privacy.
-
No, I'm so blunt that it usually rolls off my tongue whether I want it to or not. I suffer from chronic word vomit.
-
Sometimes.
-
Not at all. I'm pretty honest with myself. Now telling others....that's up for debate.
-
no. not at all...
-
It depends on the company and the circumstances. Often, particularly with a certain someone at work, I have to bury my feelings deep. Generally I have to keep them buried anyways at work just because it wouldn't do to let what I really think or feel about most things out (unless I want to look for a new job ;)).
-
Heck no! I have been called "brutally honest" by some folks.
-
not at all usually with my hands
