“I have no idea where THAT came from — I just said it before I knew what I was saying.”

It’s pretty well recognized in the field of psychology that people sometimes say things they didn’t intend to. The things we say often come from something important but unacknowledged. It’s not uncommon for feelings to seem unacceptable, scary, foolish, and so forth. One method of dealing with that sort of feeling is to convince ourselves we don’t really feel that way, or to try to push it out of our minds. The problem is, if we don’t like our feelings they don’t just vanish, and will come out in one way or another. It works better to acknowledge that even though we sometimes don’t like them, our feelings are real. This can allow us to start understanding, processing, and either accepting or changing them.
