I'm working on getting re-connected to m

I'm working on getting re-connected to my feelings. I'm so disconnected that when I feel "distress", all I can do is cry because I don't know what I'm feeling. Then I try to "think" what I'm feeling (what should I be feeling?; what would other say they are feeling?).....I'm a "think-alholic". I'm working on feeling before I think, and it's hard!! My counselor has me ID'ing where in my body I sense it first as a way to connect to it. I carry my "Feelings Wheel" because I never know when something is going to come up. I've had some successes and it's been great! I've learned that restricting numbed me from bad feelings, but it also numbed me from the good ones!! Of course, ID'ing those has been easier!
