why do u repress it? start expressing it. there is nothing wrong in being angry. if some people around u can not tolerate it they have to leave and they re not your real friends. be yourself and show your feelings. those who love u for what u re can tolerate a lot trust me.

make a list-- of the feelings at the forefront of your mind\n\nput them in order from 1-10 (1)\n being the least important to 10 being the most-- and go from there.  Sometimes there are things we just cannot do anything about

Repressed means that you choose not to remember something that happened because it may not have been a pleasant memory, or one that you wanted to remember. Or (on a funny note) clothes that need to be re-ironed.

When dealing with abuse of any type (can also be the same as dealing with any type of emotional hurt/pain) it needs to be exposed to someone.  To simply suppress emotions and feelings without dealing with them and/or the issue will only cause things to get worse and when they come back, they'll hurt worse.  You need to find someone who will listen and help without being judegemental.  When we run into someone that is being judgemental or basically calling us a lier, we need to remember that we ALL are human and fall to sin and then find someone different to talk with.  Suppressing feeling is like a splinter.  You know it's there and if you ignore it, it can fester and become infected causing it to turn ugly colors and cause even more pain.  Find someone to talk to.  It can be a good trusted friend, it can be a trusted family member, a christian consoulor, pastor, ...    Find someone and talk about it, deal with it and work through it.

u can. it's just u made radical change, but hasn'i got used yet. and it's also past effect, u used all ur energy to perform this change and now u feel emotianally exausted and it couses deppression and fear. give urself a short break and then procedd to develop urself and make more positive changes. be in action, don't relax too much and reflect too much on the situation. act, act, act\n\nand the last but not tyhe least, what is done is done and u should never regret.\n\neverything will be ok. believe me. don't afraid and be courageous.

yes you should'nt feel scared to express your feelings. I know because I was scared the same way. But I was in maggiage been with him for 10 yrs. After he would yell I felt anger inside but for years I took it. After awhile I yelled back. Nothing came out good. My point to u is it won't get better he won't stop. Why the issue is not u it's him. Some men feel that they can't help u so they yell and argue with you. all u what him to do is listen and maybe hold u and understand u.He might not know how to answer u back. Maybe u should tell him to hold u if he can't find the words to express what u just told him. And if that don't work it will never change. Rememeber the issue is with him. It's not right to feel scared to talk to the person u share life with. But let him know frist. Then go from there. He either going to do two things he going to try to make that change and don't expect over night or he will always be that way and my advice to u is don't waste your life. A person cannot change other person it don't work. Rememeber love yourself. Read Ten Stupid Things Women Do to Mess up Their Lives by Dr. Laura Schlessinger it's easy reading a paper back book it's good. If I knew about it before I would of never waste 10 yrs of my life. Take Care and there's aother book she wrote for couples Ten Stupid Things Couples Do to Mess Up Their Relationships. Please get them

Hate to say this but you are putting you through the emotional rollercoaster.  It's possible to stop.  Think about being open and honest with these two about your feelings, doubts, and fears.  You'll feel better.  And remember, the world won't end if this connection you feel goes away.  You'll still be worthwhile and valuable as a person.

You need to first of all take a deep breath and try to relax.\nIt can be really scary when someone you love is sick and on life support. Talk to your friends and family about how you feel. It is really important not to keep your feelings bottled up. If you have a religion or a belief in God you should pray about your feelings of being afraid. Sometimes when things are hard or scary or sad it is good to write down your feelings in a notebook or private place. It can make you feel better to get your feelings out in writing, especially if you don't feel like you have anyone to talk to. I can't tell you that everything is going to be ok. I wish I could. But sometimes things work out and people get better. Sometimes they don't and people we care about don't always get better. I will pray for your dad and I will pray for you. Good luck and best wishes.

For me, dark, depressive stuff is a healthy way for me to "purge" my emotions.  It helps me work through the feelings I have about certain things in my life.

A friend maybe just what she needs,if you feel you want to be nice and help ,by all means talk to her.\ndont be afraid of that ,just be normal and yourself,say you want to understand and be of help.\nthe best advice always is to point out the pleasures of being alive and the oppertunities still awaiting.\n bad feelings are not permanent ,

I found the easiest way to tell someone, at least for me, was to just write a note. Writing your feelings down allows you to express exactly what you feel, but are afraid to in person. It worked quite a few times for me.

May sound a bit fem to do, but I am sure it will help you mentally if you write your emotions down on paper. Spill your heart and soul out, then put that paper(s) away for a while. Come back to that paper in a few days and read it, analyze it, and reassess your emotions at that point. If you keep doing that, you will start to see that those emotions will start to change and you will eventually start the healing process. :o) Chin up! :o)

You can either: \nTake it out on all the people that care about you and make them miserable (like a friend of mine)\n\nOr there's always: reading, watching a great dvd, getting a fish tank (cool hobbie for stress)and write down your emotions.

Controlling your feelings takes practice. You start with making a decision to do it. Then, every time you feel a certain way, you remember that you want to stop feeling that way. Then, you replace that feeling with something positive. For instance...you want to stop feeling shy. You find someone who's not shy and see how they are. If they are someone you want to be like, you do like they do. Hopefully, it's a person who is mature for their age and a positive influence for you to follow. Then, you start making the changes that are needed to overcome your shyness. Join a club at school, like chorus. Join an after school club, like 4H. Get involved with volunteer work, where there are lots of people. Fairly soon, you won't feel shy around others because you'll be too busy enjoying their company. You will have conquered your shyness. Now, if your problem is anger, that's something a little more difficult. You'll have to try to understand why you're angry and how it happens. Anger usually happens when you feel out of control of a situation that another person caused. You have to first realize that you can't control another person. You can try, either hitting them or some other extreme thing. But that puts you in their control because they just caused you to do something you didn't need to do. You could have walked away, ignoring them. Anger is a choice, just like any other emotion. You can choose to not________ (fill in the blank with whatever emotion you have). It's a want, not a need. Feelings come and go. The person you "fell" in love with a month ago, you can't stand now. They did something that made you mad. Actually, YOU chose to be mad...no one can make you anything you don't want to be. If someone calls you a dork, that doesn't make you one. It's someone else's feelings, not yours. If you then start feeling like they're right and you are a dork, you just accepted their feelings as yours. You see what I'm saying? By choosing to change, you don't have to feel any way that is less than great. After all, God didn't make junk. You are a wonder of God's creation. <*)))><
