My parent discourages me from expressing my emotions. How can I vent?

Parent are human beings, believe it or not we are. And no one likes facing their limitations. And no one hold up a mirror to my face and shows me my shortcomings better than my kids. We get hurt. And you guys can hurt us. A lot. So sometimes we ask you to stop. Go find a sibling or a friend to vent to. Understand our pain

A diary is a great idea! Not only can you vent anonymously, It's often good to track your progress, see what makes you feel happy, and what potential triggers have caused anxieties, sadness and so on :)

I am really sorry to hear that your parent discourages you from expressing your emotions. Sometimes it is necessary because you don't want to keep all of this in the back of your mind. What about trying to write in a journal or expressing your emotions through music or art? There are tons of things you can do! Just see what works best. Sending lots of love and hugs your way!

There are many different ways to vent, you could get your own diary, you can vent all your feelings out in there. Write everything your feeling down, all your anger and frustrations out into the diary. You can vent your anger by joining a gym and using a punch bag, hit it as hard as you possibly can. Get all that anger out into the punch bag. You could draw how you are feeling, so make pieces of art that represent how you are feeling. There are many different ways, you just have to find the one that works for you.

Is important to tell your parents how you feel about this. Then, try to write down all your feelings, talk to a friend or look for some theater class.

I find writing gets stuff off my chest and allows me to say whatever I'm feeling at the time. The writing doesn't even have to be kept, it can be thrown away!

on here is a great way to vent, ive been there. feeling as if theres no way to express my emotions. I feel how frustrating it must be. come on here and vent. if you want to talk to me im here for you. writing is a great way to vent. and im sure friends would be a great listening ear for you as well

Try a new sport or hobby? For example, I run 100m and it helps to burn off any anger or frustration.

7 Cups of Tea is a great place to vent. Of course trusted friends are okay to vent to as well, however just be careful to not constantly talk about your problems. Often times friends will not know what to say or they feel like they cannot talk about their own problems. It is a two way relationship. There are are also professionals such as counselors, or even other family members you feel comfortable talking with. Writing in a journal might also be of some help.

You can take time alone in your room or anywhere that you feel private and just vent. You don't have to vent only when there is people around. You can also vent in private by yourself just to feel better.
