Emotions; when you feel everything is too much....

Hey dear Readers!!

I hope you all are fine and enjoying your day with full of happiness.

Emotions can be difficult to manage. Most of us were not really taught at a young age how to handle them. And as we grow older, some of us develop a reluctance to face our emotions healthily. Instead, we learn to avoid and numb our feelings through distractions.

Emotions are a part of human biology because they play an important purpose. They helped our ancestors survive. Emotions affect our motivations, actions, and interactions both in positive and negative ways. The negative effects of emotions are not really because of the emotions themselves but because of our relationship with them.

If we control our emotions then it's easy to control every negative thoughts. Properly handling our emotions can provide us with greater resilience during moments of disappointments. It makes us choose the right and smart decisions. It makes us connect more with others by empathize with how they're feeling. And lastly, it can give us a sense of peace and clarity.

But how do we handling our emotions?

I will share some steps.These steps are a distillation of the available knowledge.

Learn when to stop:

The first step is to stop. Or more precisely, knowing when to just stop what you're doing and decide that you need to process your emotions. This will require time, preferably, alone. Unfortunately, we have easy access to multiple channels of distractions when we're alone. A lot of us just shove what we're feeling by consuming entertainment and hope they don't turn up again.

There is nothing wrong with entertaining yourself but one sign that you need to pause and work through your emotions is when your feelings keep bothering you for days or weeks no matter how hard you try to numb yourself or rationalize your situation.

But it can be difficult to admit that there is something wrong with your or your situation. But it can't be impossible. So yeah you can do it.

Notice or detect everything:

The next step is to immerse yourself in the emotions. This require self-introspection and acceptance. It doesn't mean being consumed by the feelings, but you immerse yourself to observe and point out whatever it is that bothering you.

A good starting point is to list down in your mind, on paper or a device, all your current worries. Worries can be simple as describing a negative scenario or event. Be descriptive and detailed as possible. Slot of worries are tied to the future or how we think it will be. Worries also come from how we think others think about us. List as many worries as you can.

By this time, different emotions may come up and that's okay. It is the part of our life. It's like unloading weight from within.

Focusing on the circle of control:

The last stage and the most important is to be aware of your circle of control and consequently, the things outside it. Try answering the question, "What can you only do?" This stage is very important because this is where actions to be taken are listed down. This is also where we seal our emotions by letting go of the things that we have no control over.

The important thing to remember is to focus only on the things that you have direct control over. So as not to complicate things, think only of the next simple action you can do. Don't make an extensive timeline of activities. That will only compound your worries. Usually, if you've properly grounded yourself in reality, knowing what to do next becomes easier.

Take these steps the next time you find yourself worrying too much about something or someone.With practice, processing your emotions can be as quick as a few minutes of just pausing and going through the steps above.
