this is wonderful..I have been battling emotions so long. I recognize that they are just that, emotions, and I can control and steer their reality by my thought life but I know emotions have a purpose too but I struggle with the balance.

If you are a teenager it may just be part of puberty. Hope you feel better soon.

Isn't it possible that someone might be better off taking their own life? If one is tired and has no hope and has tried therapy and has lived and has nothing to which to look forward and life is just drudgery - worse: constant, unremitting pain?

Personally - I think that taking your own life is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. I would suggest talking to your T and/or pdoc and letting them know just how you feel.

lovEternal - I googled my user name and didn't come up with anything linking me back to this site. You may want to post this question in the technical support thread.

If I type into google "Psych Central Coping with emotions" I can get to this subforum, but if I type in your user name additionally it does not go to your profile. For someone to see what you've written here they'd have to know your username. Hope this helps. The previous poster was right there's also another section of the forums in which these questions are normally answered, and you can always PM a moderator or admin with any questions. __________________ ![]() Yesterday I was so clever, so I want to change the world.

I am in a rough place. I don't think I've had many safe times to express emotions--I've usually been told some form of 'you shouldn't feel that', especially when it's an emotion such as anger or upset.
What can I do for this? |

I was told something similar, growing up. I see a T who helps me to figure out my emotions and lets me know that its OK to have them even if I don't know where they are coming from. She also told me yesterday that I need to remember that the emotions are just feelings and that the feelings can't hurt me. Not sure if that helps. You could post your own thread here in this section asking for advice.

I've always had a difficult time separating feelings from reality in certain situations. It really does help to constantly reassure ourselves that feelings cannot hurt us. |

Re: Coping with emotions
Hi to everyone! I am new to this site and feel I will be able to gain some very helpful & insightful information from you. I have extreme difficulty identifying emotions. I feel the first step to understanding yourself (at least for me) is to be able to identify what you are feeling before you can begin to know what your needs are. I wish you all a sense of calmness and peace within. We all so deserve it |
