How can I tell someone how I'm feeling without looking silly or weak?

First, you have to talk to someone you are comfortable with. Figure out if you are more comfortable talking face-face or not. And lastly, pick someone you trust the most.

Please don't ever think that discussing your feelings and thoughts will make you look silly or weak. Everyone feels the way you do at some point; it's okay. There is always someone here, or someone somewhere else in the world who is willing to listen. You just have to find them. :)

you can learn assertive communications skills. there are a wealth of material on communication skills and this is perhaps the most important skill to have in life. Effective communication solves so many problems as most problems are simply misunderstandings. Expressing your emotions are important but give them context so I often tell people to think "I feel because" and use I statements not YOU statements so you own your thoughts and feelings. Attaching the thought and the feeling in the one sentence gives a complete picture of what you feel and why. Just saying what you feel can leave people wondering why or worse, making assumptions.

Simply, say it with confidence and sincerity. The aura will reflect your condition like it's natural.

You can just tell them exactly how you feel. If you tell the right person, they won't think you're silly or weak. Just tell a good friend, a close family member or a school teacher you like, someone you trust.

You should tell it to the person whom you trust and who trusts you and just let it all out. True friends will understand you even if you look silly :)

Never feel weak for talking about your feelings. Just confront whoever you want to talk to and tell them, how they react is their fault, not yours.

I honestly don't think people ever look silly or weak when they say how they are feelings. I think that is brave. By telling someone how you feel, you are opening up to them in a way that many other can't. Try to change your perspective or being weak and view it as being brave instead :)

I don't think that you will look silly or feel weak at all if you have the courage to tell someone how you are really feeling. I have had some of the most incredible conversations when I have had a moment of bravery that has allowed me to share with another person on that level. Give it a chance! You'll be surprised what beauty you will find in yourself and others when you have such true and real conversation! :)

If they are your friend, they will never think of you in that way. You will look strong because you are willing to ask for help.
