Feelings are like food and you are the refrigerator. The longer and more food you keep it in the refrigerator that you dont eat or put it out, the more disgusting and unhealthy it is in that refrigerator because the foods are rotting.

It's important to share your feelings so that they don't get all balled up inside. By sharing, you avoid a major mental breakdown.

It is important to open up because you're are realising stress off you and you won't have to go through depression or aniexty if you open up . From a personal experience , I hated opening up because I thought that was the answer to everything . My mental health issues were just getting worse . so please , open up to any one who you are very close to .

Bottling up your feelings isn't nice, and it's not a good way to live your life. Bottling up could make you feel worse, and fragile over time. It could also lead to the point where you don't talk when you need and have to, not only about your feelings, but also in important situations like a situation you are a witness in. Sharing your feelings provide you with such a relief and makes you feel better about yourself and the situation. Sharing your feelings is a good way to clear up your mind from all the thoughts and stuff that could be there. Sharing is a good way of meditation.

It is so important to share your feelings because allowing them to grow unchecked, unheard, and unacknowledged is a path straight to feeling overburdened. As listeners, our first suggestion to our users is to unburden themselves. We can't be effective at helping shoulder that when we carry the weight of our own heavy feelings everywhere with us. Sharing our feelings with another listener, or journaling about them, or confiding in an important person in our lives can go so far toward helping us feel as heard and accepted as we make our users feel. It helps us to be kinder to ourselves and others, and helps us to be more effective in listening, and in living.

In my personal experience, I've found that sharing my feelings provides an outlet for the turbulent state of my mind. It helps to put into words what I'm experiencing, and it helps to have someone validate these emotions and help me explore their causes -- to have someone guide me to a solution to my problems. Oftentimes we know what we're feeling and why subconsciously, but we're unwilling to confront these ideas. It's very helpful to have someone else there in those times so that you can come to understand what it is that's making you feel the way you are.

For me it is important to share feelings so I can better communicate my wants and needs to my partner and friends and family. I have found that when I don't express my feelings and hold everything inside it all comes out at once. Usually that ends with me mentally exploding and crying and saying hurtful things to the ones I love. In other words it doesn't end well. Sharing feelings gives me the room to state how I feel and them the room to change their behavior accordingly. I hope this helps a little bit. It has taken me years to learn how to share feelings but I wouldn't go back to holding it all inside again. In the words of frozen, "Let it go."

Because if you always keep everything to yourself and never share everything you put a huge mountain of pressure on yourself to try and fix, which of some things aren't even possible to fix on your own, which makes you anxious when you can't fix those things which just add up to the pile of things. Alone, you literally have half the brain capacity of two people. Imagine how much easier it would be if you were able to use some help instead of trying to overcome things you can't overcome alone? Sharing stuff saves you from a lot of unnecessary stress!

It is so, so, so important to share your feelings because nobody will know how you feel unless you tell them. Being able to share your feelings is a great way to help others understand you, and also, perhaps more surprisingly, help you understand yourself. When you talk about the way you feel, it helps your brain process what you're going through. When you share your feelings, others are more capable of empathising with your situation as well-- it's part of the healing process. Being able to share your feelings is important because it's what brings us together and helps us understand and live with one another.

Speaking is only useful to clarify things (that's why old friends do not speak too often). You're not sharing your feelings to make others able to understand you and solve things out. It's only logical that there will be incomprehensions if you do not, it's not right or wrong but you'll have to be at peace with the consequences of not being understood.

Sharing helps others and its therapeutic for you.
