How can I learn to control my emotions when I don't even know what they are?

It is very difficult to control what you do not know or see. The first step is to use self-awareness in determining your feelings. Being aware of emotions is something everyone can do. Documenting these emotions throughout a day or week is very important. Then, and only then, will you be able to control the emotions through direct action steps.

Try taking deep breaths, slow and steady. Take a moment/s to yourself to calm your mind and your heart.

I always try breathing deep before contemplating , it helps me clear my mind and work out the courage to go through the thought that might have gone through in generating the situation.

The key to control your emotions islelearning what they are first. So try hard and you'll get what they are but first make sure you know what your up against.

It may help to start by trying to identify your emotions. There are lots of ways to do this - including lists of emotions (I color coded mine, but you might write yours alphabetically or in a wheel, lots of options!), taking a moment to breathe when you are overwhelmed and then try to label your emotion, journaling, drawing, finding quotes that fit your emotions and later returning to ask yourself what emotion that quote probably reflected, and describing your feelings however they feel (tingly, tight, fast, orange, etc). It takes time, and can be frustrating, but working on ways to find out how you feel can be a very important and useful part of learning how to handle your emotions better. It's trial-and-error as you find how to label your emotions. But sticking with it, you'll eventually figure something out. Hang in there friend.

If you are at home, try to have a proper sleep, this will let you forget the things you suffering from. You may time spend time with your loved ones, it may help you. But you are thinking too much about something please it will be better to choose a first option. Cause choosing the seconed one may spoil mood of your loved ones too. When you are out somewhere and if you feel so, try listening to music, think of the good moments you spent with your loved ones, take your friends on coffee.

Sometimes we have to pray, because prayer is the answer to questions we don't even know exist. Saying lord help me, renew my mind and my heart.

I think it helps to pinpoint where the emotion is coming from, even if you can't label it. "What brought on this feeling?" "What decision can I make to affect the outcome?" By labeling the root and identifying what is causing an issue- you have much more insight into addressing it and finding a resolution.

The most important thing about controlling your emotions is to always try to stay calm. Try to be happy with who you are, what you have accomplished so far, be aware of your surroundings and of things you could do to make you feel more at ease and happier with who you are. Once you achieve that state of happiness within yourself, you know that you can achieve anything and that everything will eventually be ok. Time and self-worth are the only things that will make you control your emotions, and with time, you'll learn what they are and what they mean.

Take a moment to sit down, in a neutral envoirnment, where you are comfortable and try to figure out what is bothering you.
