Often when I feel certain ways, I don't have reference points to mentally articulate how I'm feeling - if I even have the ability to consciously distinguish the feeling and highlight it. That shuts down a lot of internal dialog and analysis before it has the chance to take place.
When I'm anxious, my thinking is clouded across the board, which makes this weakness all the more apparent.
I wonder if there are any books out there that specifically help to instil an understanding of the nuances in emotional processing.
