How are you feeling?
Jump to: Newest in thread
Are you you good at talking about your feelings?
I'm really rubbish at it.i just try to bury them and stick a big smile on my face until any bad feelings have passed.
Luckily, it doesnt happen all that often.
So what about you? Do you talk your feelings out or do you bury them and wait for them to pass?
How are you feeling tonight?
I'm feeling a little sad.

If I trust someone, eventually yeah. I'm an open book most can read when I'm unhappy even when I think I'm hiding it well though. Lucky I have friends around mf who knows when to ask and nudge me to open up sometimes |

To add to this, I'm a little sad too. |

I've never been good at sharing my feelings. I let my problems build up until they reach breaking point at times.
I've suffered with mental health problems for as long as I can remember, but I just put up with it. I try to counter-act it with comedy, watching funny things on YouTube for example.
Sorry you are feeling down, hope things get better for you. |

I'm pretty open, but when it comes to my own feelings I generally save that chat for those I'm closest with and keep lighthearted with the rest. I'm approachable though, so people tell me their own feelings regularly, and I try to advise them as best I can, but I save most people from my deeper thoughts. |

I'm so sorry you're feeling sad. Unfortunately feeling sad is the counter of feeling happy. As functioning people, it's natural to experience both. Hopefully, neither dominates, or we're not in a healthy place.
I hope that your sadness passes naturally.

"I talk about my feelings. I cry if I want to. It does no good bottling them up. It's difficult to shut me up once I get going.
☺️"
Cry if you want two,
Cry if you want to,
Yoy would Cry to if it happened to you.

Yeah I would say I'm an open book too. I'm the one who always looks on the positive side, the piece of the jigsaw that holds everything together. I think I look at it as week to open up and say I don't feel that great..yet id be the first person to encourage someone else to. Saying I feel a bit sad tonight feels quite empowering 😊 |

I know what you mean, I've had a terrible couple of weeks that has had to be the extreme of things before I'll say I'm not feeling great. Shouldn't take so much to make us stop |

Thank you. I think I am just drained from this god damn heat - and sleep deprived! Maybe sad was the wrong word. Flat would probably be a better one. 🖤 |

This is the perfect weather for melancholy or, how Brazilean call it, saudade. The best music and poetry have been written in that stage. Embrace it. “La tristesse durera toujours”. And suddenly it will vanish. |

Overwhelmed. Yesterday was my first day back at work after two weeks off and I have so much to catch up on. Meetings everyday this week in different parts of the country with different clients, so it just feels hectic. It will all be OK by Friday!

Sorry you're feeling that way Mrs W. Hopefully you're feeling a bit brighter today.
I can be quite open with people I trust, it took years to learn that it's ok to be not ok.
It's useful to be able to talk about these things, sometimes even just verbalising and getting it out is enough, sometimes another person's perspective is most helpful.
But not with the world and his wife! |

Thanks.

You shouldn't hide your feelings, especially from yourself.
It's who you are, be proud of yourself  |

I'm not too bad today thanks. I do think the trick is just to spit out what's on your mind. Bottling things up just magnifies things and makes it feel more impossible to share with someone.
I'm going to try and do better with that 😊🙌🏼 |

Hope you feel better op.
I have days where I feel like a complete failure. Days where I cry in the shower so no one can see. But the people closest to me wouldn't know that so I'd say I'm not the best at talking about how I feel.

I have pretty bad depression, partly from extensive RA pain, but also from a long term relationship gone bad. I kept it to myself for years not knowing the damage that was doing. Now I have counselling once a week - talking to someone REALLY does help... |

I am trying to be better at not bottling things up and overthinking…. But it’s a work in progress.
I’m very good at letting something small niggle away at me until it explodes or (more likely) I squash it down hard enough that it doesn’t show… and more often that little thing could have been sorted quickly and easily if I’d just opened my mouth.
Trusting someone enough to be that vulnerable is HARD, especially when you’re considered to be the strong, stable, resilient and reliable one. When you’re the one everyone comes to to vent, it’s difficult to be the vulnerable one.
I am getting better at it, I have my chosen people… but yeah it doesn’t come naturally to me.
As for how I’m feeling right now. I’m all ok. A genuine I’m fine. |

I've had to learn to talk about them. Had to open up about being diagnosed with cancer with other men in our 50s.
Honestly best thing I ever did. Such a weight lift. Now we talk about all kinds of stuff.
Remember guys, what said in the pub stays in the pub. Bloke therapy. |

PLEASE, don't hide in that hole alone. At least speak to your GP.
There are more people out there that genuinely want to help you than you realise.
I've been there...
I'm only a PM away if you need someone to talk to.
Just don't 'suffer in silence', there's no need, no matter how low you feel.
There's ALWAYS a hand reaching down willing to help you up!
Believe in yourself xxxd |

It's all the annoying cliches, but it is ok not to be ok sometimes. A problem shared and all that. Having a cry in the shower sounds quite healthy to me x |

Sounds like you have a good support network there. I hope you kick the absolute shit out of it x |

I blabber my feelings all over to my loved ones. They have to put up with my messed up storylines and going around circles on the whole storyline as to why I am feeling the way I do 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I totally wear my heart on my sleeve. 🥺🩷
As to how I am feeling now- I am calm and balanced. A bit excited for my birthday tomorrow.  |
