Thank you for sharing your observations, Duff. It's so great that you are seeing results with the EE program. It really is a wonderful breathing exercise. Just letting things develop is a good course of action to take while having all of these emotions and past memories come up. Just acknowledge them, seeing things as they really were/are, and, then, let them go.
As for focusing on yourself too much, while you are trying to "know" yourself better and see what has gone on in the past and how that is effecting your "now", it's not a bad thing. Just make sure that you include helping others as often as you can. And, helping others, or being with others need not be stressful. Just smiling at someone you see, or opening a door for someone is helping them. You can take baby steps with being around others, just as you do when learning about yourself.
Good luck on your new adventure of learning about yourself and being with others.
