In reply to ME- MEG Franchi. Hi Meg, it's in the back of the Running On Empty book. Just go to the end of the book and you'll see it there.

In reply to Ketsia. Dear Ketsia, I suggest you make an appointment with one of the CEN therapists listed under the HELP tab on this site. You deserve help and support to learn these skills. if that's not an option, you can check the other resources under the Programs tab.

In reply to Ketsia. Dear Ketsia, you can accept that there is nothing to forgive. This is not your fault! Put all your energy into changing. You can do it!

Dear Jonice,

Thank you for writing this article as I feel like sadness is an emotion a lot of people around me want to suppress within me. As someone who recently realized that I am emotionally stunted and sheltered at age 25, it makes me feel mortified. Because of this it can be hard to exude positive emotions to other people and make friends because I am so sad and empty on the outside so it is like I don’t have real fun love to give. Now it feels like I need to teach myself social and emotional skills but I don’t know how to do that alone. How would you suggest forgiving yourself and moving forward in this.

Dear Jonice,
I feel so comforted by this article and can attest to the feeling of underlying sadness a lot of the time. It’s interesting because I struggle with being emotionally immature and not having the social and emotional skills for everyday life. I feel like that makes it hard for me to make friends and exude positive energy because I am so empty myself. This is the hardest challenge because I don’t know who can teach me these things. I want to improve and not be socially awkward my whole life 🙁 Do you have suggestions for how to teach myself this in adulthood?

I resonate with this article and the sadness that can underlying CEN. I think for me I’ve seen how that can make me less positive and so I struggle to make friends because of it. I feel like I’ve missed out on connections because I don’t have exude the love I want to receive. How do you think we can forgive the ourselves for this?

Defeated. I feel and have felt many many other emotions throughout my life, but after going through countless therapists, many different drugs and combinations of drugs and therapy including TMS, “defeated” sums it all up.
