Will talking about what happened make me feel worse?

The initial feelings after talking can vary from person to person. It may seem, at first, then talking about what has happened to you has made you feel worse but after a little while, you may realise that talking about it and expressing your emotions can make you feel a lot better! For some, the relief of talking about what has happened comes instantly. Talking about it and letting out your feelings is part of the recovery process and can help you take steps towards healing.

Talking about what has happened to you can, at first, make you feel a little worse but once you start you can sometimes find that letting your emotions and the experience out and really accepting it can make you feel better and help you to move forward and start healing.

I think this completely depends on yourself. I mean, in my own experience, many people have told me they always seem to feel worse when discussing it, but over time it made them feel better. That's because the negative thoughts no longer lingered around in their minds! :)

At first it may do. That's because you will be revisiting the emotions and feeling them again as it's emotional recall. After however, you should feel like a weight has been lifted from your shoulders and relaxed as you've let everything that you've locked up out.

I'm just starting some counseling right now, and I can tell you that it might feel worse at first because maybe you haven't talked about what's going on before. It might dredge up a lot of feelings. But then it's going to get so much better, and you'll be so glad you did. (And no matter if you feel bad a lot or not, you will probably feel relief at being able to get it out--I know I did!)

While I'm talking about what happened I may feel worse, but getting it out helps my understanding of what happened in the situation and how I should feel about it from an objective point-of-view.

It honestly could at first. Working through any problem can be intense, but when you get through it and feel as though someone understands you, in the end you will feel better.

It can trigger emotions but once you have let these feelings out it can offer release. Telling someone how you feel can release a lot of pressure from you, making you feel more relaxed and calmer than before.

Yes and no. Talking things out generally can help almost all people get there emotions of of themselves. So emotionally it might be worse, but on the inside, you won't be keeping anything in anymore.

Absolutely not ! You'll actually feel better by talking to people ! It always feels good to talk to someone like a friend.It refreshes us and may even solve our problems !
