What is the width of the fine line between voicing one's worries/pains, and being an "emo"? Such a small, fine line it is.
Loneliness is a pain I must ignore, for I do not deserve love in my current state. Blah blah blah...

Everyone has emotions, obviously. Some people have them more than others, and that's fine (I'm a very emotional person, but I'm selective in whom I share it with). It's when you dwell on your emotions, ie, how bad your life is, how everyone abandons you, etc, etc, that 'being emo' becomes an issue. Moreover, it's the constant dwelling upon problems that is just plain unhealthy. One could say that any American especially has no reason to whine about things, that there is always someone worse off than you. Granted, this is in a way true and viable. At least we have vaccinations and the basic staples of life.
I'm not sure, though, that the need to talk about where you're at in life is 'emo.' It's rather impossible to make a judgement call just by looking at the surface, you know? I guess, if the concern is becoming emo or too whiney emotional perhaps, then keep in mind at some point, one has to move on and work past their pain. I do know, however, that some wounds cannot be healed until they are mourned, and some worries must be validated and understood.
This blurb really isn't any sort of diagnosis, but I'd be happy to discuss the subject more in-depth anytime. smile
