Is the inability to describe emotional experiences appropriately.Alexithymia is a relatively new term which means the inability to express feelings with words. The medical research coming under this term is showing what a lot of us already knew: If you can't express your feelings with words, you are going to have a lot of problems!Most behaviors emerge from a combination of biological, psychological, and social influences.
