OF course there’s a good chance I may have a bit of alexithymia it’s called? It’s whatever they call having a limited ability to name or notice one’s own emotional states.
So I could be suffering and might not know it per se. I’ll notice physical symptions but be confused as to the cause where as a regular person might be like, “I’m suffering right now”.
Of course, in things like tooth pain that remind you every moment, that’s suffering.
Or waiting for a phone call to come that you have to pick up immediately, that’s suffering.
