The breadth of life, especially if given to spontaneous interaction (as for example a holiday with relatives) can leave a person hollow and without self-confidence. Lack of vital energy and recessive states are part of being. Yet, no matter what 'undesirable' demeanor, you need to see the opportunity of moving through, with, or/and around unwanted suchness by first stopping (if only for a nano second) to SEE yourself there. Then the power of DETACHMENT cures all.
You say, "I have real feelings because this or that happens; detachment only goes so far." Detachment goes VERY far. I recently 'did' a reactive 'hurt' resentment and self-reflection of, "I have feelings too." The moment I heard that mind tape, I laughed and vociferously rejected THAT thought. OMG! No, i don't have feelings! (playful truth of understanding spontaneous or self-entertaining indulgence in feelings is a choice).
Look, I'm a lover. I DO have real feelings, but more and more the emotions are born out of freedom/authenticity. {see serloco's thread in MASTERING AWARENESS called power}
