Understand in more detail

Your emotions are critical to your ability to adapt to the challenges you face in your everyday life. If you do not understand what you are feeling, it may be hard to understand why you are feeling that way or what caused you to feel that emotion. Everyone feels emotions in slightly different ways. John D. Jack Mayer says that, "emotions operate on many levels. They have a physical aspect as well as a psychological aspect. Emotions bridge thought, feeling, and action- they operate in every part of a person, they affect many aspects of a person, and the person effects many aspects of the emotions."

Although not understanding your emotions completely is common, it can lead to misunderstandings in the future with relationships and your overall well being as a person. Emotions are less processed and more raw than our thoughts, and are not as easy to control. Feelings are very complex and the process of understanding how you feel and why is complicated. Sometimes certain emotions are just masking another emotion you may be feeling. For example, it is common to feel angry whenever one is feeling distraught or depressed. Throughout the rest of this blog I will be explaining in more detail on how to better understand your emotions and what to do with those emotions in order to get the best out of your relationships and yourself.

Introduction

Hello! 

I hope everyone is excited as I am to broaden your knowledge on human emotions. We all have them, some just feel emotions more strongly than others. For some, emotions may be frightening. Dealing with these feelings in a helpful, not hurtful manner can be difficult. I have struggled with feeling emotions to the fullest in my life for as long as I can remember. If I am happy, I'm REALLY happy, but if I start to feel down, I feel REALLY upset. It is important to know how you are feeling and how to relate to how others are feeling, or to be empathetic. 

I will be searching the internet to find out what the best ways to deal with the things you are feeling, and what certain emotions may mean for different people. I really hope the information I post on this blog helps you with your own feelings or maybe just teaches you things you may have not known in the past!
