I find myself wondering: how much of my constant pain and sickness is old emotions floating around my body, stripped of meaning, yet retaining their pain? Is that even POSSIBLE?
There's a theory that emotions which are not expressed get stored in the body. One of the books on anger that rosefox pointed me at a while back talks about this in depth. The man's theory is that understanding and rationalizing your anger doesn't make it go away - that only expression of it makes it go away.
I would think the same would be true of other emotions as well.
