I think to manage so many emotions swirling around in you, you must try to identify them. Just be aware of what you are feeling. Each emotion might need to be dealt with in its unique way, so identifying the emotion can help you with that step.

Recognize them first and then try to work through them one by one, don't rush into things if you think you aren't ready! Take your time and you'll get there and things will start to feel clearer

By not identifying with them. When we feel lost within our emotional state in a stream of what seems to be conflicting emotions we forget that we are not the stream. Emotions are like waves on the surface of the ocean, we are not the waves but the ocean itself. It is great to feel emotions deeply and fully and even greater to express them, but only if we don't lose ourselves in them and forget that we are the oceans upon which they ripple. The good way to practice that is mindful meditation where you train yourself observe that waves while not act upon them in a safe environment of your own psyche

If you're feeling overwhelmed you have to take things one step at a time. Take a step back and take a deep breath because things will be okay even if it doesnt seem like it right now!

I find it helpful to write small poems or draw doodles based on certain emotions. Even assigning a color to a emotion helps.

You need to recognise and understand the emotions you have. If you can't figure things out by yourself, you can always talk to other people to understand it better. Aside from recognising and understanding, accepting the emotions also help you to be able to manage them.

breathing is something that people use a lot, breath in 4 seconds, hold for 7 exhale for 8, this works for any kind of emotion
