Why is it so important to share your feelings?

It's important to share your feelings so others know what you are feeling. You're emotional state of being is important due to your mental self care and making sure you are doing okay and making people aware can help you lead shaper life and get the support you need to get where you want to be.

It allows others to know your emotional state and as a result they'll empathise ( feel what you are feeling) to help or assist you. A human trait.

It's important to share your experiences in order to understand yourself and others. Other people may be going through similar feelings or may even be able to help you out. It's always good to share how you feel

If you are talking about a relationship, whether it's friendship or with your parents or with your partner, sharing your feelings and thoughts not only makes your relationship stronger as communication is one of the main pillars of any relationship but it also builds a healthy environment allowing the other person to open up to you too. When you are open about your feelings, there is hardly any room for misunderstandings and anything that can come in between your relationship. Even if we don't consider a relationship, venting out your emotions is a way to declutter your mind after all we all have our own limits right? If you keep on adding to your thoughts and feelings without a way to let them out...won't that just tire you out and over whelm you? It's just like the fact that you cannot continue to pour water in a glass that's already full without spilling the water. You have to make room for new thoughts and emotions and for that, it's important to vent out. Though you don't necessarily have to share your feelings with a person if you are not comfortable with it...just pick any medium that lets you vent out and makes you feel better.It can be anything...journaling, writing, drawing, talking to a stranger like here (if you are okay with it ) anything that you are comfortable with.

Self-awareness is the best way to feel better and be at peace. When you know yourself and your situation well, the clarity helps you attain happiness and comfort. Self-awareness comes little with the talk in your head, it is better revealed when you open up to someone and share. When you share your feelings, you hear the thoughts connected to your feelings, and when you hear them, there are better chances for you to understand them. Sharing your feelings is therefore important.

Emotional baggage is more easily carried by multiple people. Keeping your feelings to yourself if they're having a significant effect on your mental health may distance you from your loved ones/friends. They might not notice and you might not realize that's what's happening, but it will only get harder to deal with if you try to handle it by yourself. People want to know and help if you're feeling down.

Sharing your feelings is important because of many reasons, one of them is: feelings are accumulative (specially bad ones) and bad feelings can cause anxiety, irrational & rational fears, loss of self-esteem, intrust, insecurities, etc. Letting your bad feelings out will make that "bomb" go and affect you less or get completely rid of them. Keeping bad feelings in will also bring negative thoughts, but when you share a feeling, a fear, a difficult situation, it turns out to be easier... how? because you don't feel alone! Do not EVER keep a feeling there, let it out, crying, screaming, how ever you want (Never hurting others). But do not let it destroy you. A book I read says: "Cry with someone, it is more healing than crying alone"; she says that because once you cry with someone, those same tears never come back for the same reason, but when you cry alone you cry about that all over again. On the other hand, we also experience good feelings, we should also share those feelings, because you'll realize how lucky you are to be living that moment, that life, and that will make you grateful... and you will spread that joy! I am a listener from 7Cups, I'll be there to listen whenever you want.

Bottling feelings up can make then come back in different forms that can be very difficult to deal with. Expressing your emotions gives you the chance to let go of these feelings in a sense meaning the effects will be a lot smaller

Because at the same time you learn about them, to understand them, to shape them, to control them, we develop empathy and we learn about who we are.

It is important to share your feelings because bottling them inside for too long can be harmful for your ownself. Often those emotions take a toll on us, pushes us into the darkness of depression; makes us feel like that no one cares. Often the emotions also transforms into anger, and it just makes your life more hard to live. That is why whenever we share our thoughts with someone, we feel like an heavy weight just got off our chest.
