Write in a journal and keep track of your moods. Describe them and it will make it easier to identify them. You will then see how your emotions function and be able to distinguish them - thus allowing you to make informed decisions on how to control them.

Try to find the root cause first. Then you'll find your answer. There's always an answer. Even when you think there isn't.

This is a tricky one because when you don't even know what emotions you are even feeling and controlling emotions can be done in number of ways when it does happen like maybe try mediation or yoga which will help clear your head and help you figure out which emotions you are even feeling as well. This could also include taking a 3 deep breaths sitting down and even keeping a dairy of what emotions you feel and when and where and how will give you a deeper understanding of it all as well.

Life can be difficult, but it's always better to face it with a smile. Think What is better? Live completely sad or try to be happy? You may feel tired all, bored, sad and wanting to die. They are stages. You can not have a rainbow without a little rain. Try to know how you feel and analyzes each option. With love, -C xxx

Unfortunately, I don't think that's how emotions work. First, you have to face your emotions. Then, You have to figure out what you're feeling before your can begin to deal with what you're feeling. Knowing your feelings is the root of controlling them.

It's best to come to terms with how you are feeling, and for each feeling try to figure out why and what makes you feel this way, and work yourself on from there!

I think that it is important to learn what our emotions are, but that can take time. Until then, I think using DBT skills such as mindfulness and deep breathing can help to calm us down when our emotions get out of hand.
