I've found that putting all your emotions in your hobbies/passions really helps. Since I love music, belting out a song helps me level my emotions!

We don't need to name everything, sometimes feelings are confusing and overwhelming and there's no way to name them. Just feel them, and be there for yourselve.

writing your feeling down in a poem or essay is helpful. also drawing a cartoon picture of yourself and writing words and feelings all around this is also helpful. it's a great way for you to let your feelings out, and it's also a great way for friends and family to understand how you are feeling

Start with one word. If you could name that feeling in 1 word, what would that word be? Then try to use this word in a pair or words, then in a sentence. At times being able to name the scary feeling, makes this feeling less strong and brings about a degree of relief. It could be a starting point towards change.

If you have a hard time expressing your feelings with words, try drawing! Everyone is different; some people can write out their feelings, while other take a more artsy approach (i.e., drawing, sketching, painting, etc.). See how it works!

There are many different ways to express your feelings. Sometimes there are feelings that you cannot necessarily express through your own words. Are you artistic? Athletic? Many people deal with their feelings through (healthy) exercise, artwork, dancing, music, etc. for example. In this way, you are not only acknowledging your underlying feelings but you are actively releasing any negative energy that you have pent up.

Find another medium to express the feeling you can't speak out. Art is a really good place to start, by simply just writing out whatever you can to describe how you feel or express the emotion in a painting or drawing. Music is also an option as well.

Sometimes crying helps, or going outside and running. I do that, when my day is crazy and I don't know what to do or how to feel, I go running. I run until I feel better or all the craziness has stopped and I can think straight about the whole thing. Taking time to just not care about what is going on and centering yourself to think about it later helps.

Let yourself feel them. I know it can be infuriating with not knowing how to express them much less put them into words for others to understand. But be honest with yourself and others, that it is okay to not know how to express what you feel but that you simply feel it. That in time you will find a way to express it or to get past this emotion that is plaguing you

I like to draw and write. Doing those activities really helps me express myself! Writing allows me to write my characters in the situation so I can understand my own feelings better and my drawings are like a visual representation. I find these activities really help!
