One thing that I do to help with huge emotions, is I bought a large sized sketch book for my daily diary. It has no lines. I can write anyway I want to with anything, even crayons. Sometimes I paint pictures and throw glitter glue all over them, it's fun. Then on the days I really need to, I tear out of magazines pictures that resemble my huge emotions and paste them in the sketchbook. It takes on a story and the pictures are pretty telling. I usually use National Geographic or even obscure photography magazines, they usually have bizzare images which works for me. I have about 5 pages of these collages that I am bringing in with me to show my T next week. On other days when I can manage emotions, I write on the pages.

It seems to turn huge emotions into a positive experience and it reduces the level of emotion.
