I've always had emotions that have been so strong. I remember feeling awful sadness and upset at a film I watched when I was around six. One of the cartoons died in it and at such a young age I now realise the level of sadness I felt for how young I was, was definitely not normal. 

I don't think I know what it feels to just feel sad. Just normal sad. For me, it feels like actual grief. The kind of pain you feel when someone you love has died, with the lump in your throat and the physical feeling of being in so much mental pain your body just drains all of it's resources to cope with the emotional anguish. It doesn't even have to have a trigger, it just happens.

It's the most difficult to cope with when there isn't a trigger because it feels like I'm trapped inside my own head and I can't escape the pain because I know nothing has caused it so theres no obvious resolution.

Just a bit of a random post because right now I'm starting to feel the untriggered kind of grief sad :(
