How can I deal with feelings I can't find words to express?

I find that once I take time to reflect upon the situation that I can later identify the emotions that are at hand. It's important to be able to name them, or be aware of them, because then you can deal with them. If they remain nameless or unknown, you will have trouble dealing with the feelings that are overwhelming. Once they are known, you can then let go of fear and let the emotions run their course. Do this in a safe place. Intensity can only be high for so long, thus it's important to let the emotions come and then pass. This is how we deal with feelings. :)

If it is something I am happy about I will laugh it out. If it is something troubling or sad, I will try smile anyways cause remaining positive is important.

Make a drawing, even if is only colorful lines or monochrome doodles. If still you cannot tell, sometimes listening songs, help, others might put in words what you feel.

Try to deal with those feelings through art (paintings, drawings) or quotes of songs, writers or anyone else. Quotes seems to be one of the best ways since others seem to express what we feel and we aren't able to express.

Try to express them through other means like art or music. Or do something (not harming yourself in any way) that would make you feel better in the moment. Maybe ask someone to sit by you, cry, or crawl under the covers. If you find yourself dwelling on feelings for long periods of time that the emotions seem overwhelming and last forever, try mindfulness meditation, and afterwards when you feel calmer, divert your attention away from your emotions by doing something to distract yourself~

Sit by yourself for a while and think them through. Try writing them down, or maybe drawing/painting them "out"?

Start with what you can express, and you'll often find that the things you feel that way about find a way to follow. Just talking about yourself can open up a gateway into those kind of feelings.
