If you are unable to share certain thoughts or feelings with any other human in any meaningful way, how can a person manage this in a healthy way?

Both psychologically sound and proven methods as well as personal anecdotes are welcome.

Please assume sharing is non-negotiable which precludes close friends, family, and/or professionals.

Understandable :) I guess the closest would be to read/listen to experiences of other people feeling/experiencing the same thing as you, which certainly do exist.

Thanks, if I somehow stumble on somebody who mentions even one thing I can relate to, I’ll be sure to listen and absorb what was said.
