What is an emotion?
When people experience a strong negative feeling or emotion, they experience a strong physical tension, a rush of thoughts, or a surge of adrenaline. But they may have difficulty describing the underlying emotion. Whether it is helplessness, fear, remorse or disappointment. When you lack this important information, it is difficult to express yourself fully, and your experiences and relationships may be unconsciously damaged. In order to convey this important information about yourself, you can practice how you feel using words. At the most basic level, you can portray yourself as angry, dissatisfied, hopeless, or feeling bad. Think about recent events in which you felt something unpleasant, then use the list below to identify and mark the feeling or emotions that best reflect your experience.

Now, read the unfinished sentences below and write the word or words in the blank that best describes your reaction to the situation.

If you answered 'angry' to most of these descriptions, go back to the list and try to identify other emotions you would feel in these situations. In these situations, you may feel angry or vice versa, but try to write anyway.
When we look at the role of emotions in our lives, they give us information about what is happening in any given situation, so we can make appropriate decisions about how to react. But strong emotions force us to act and short-circuit the decision-making process. When we are angry, our anger pushes us to react suddenly and attack the thing or person we see as the source of our pain. Although this situation may cause a momentary feeling of well-being, it can cause serious damage to our relationships.
We must not forget that we are all human beings and creatures that act with our emotions. It is difficult to intervene in thought. Thousands and thousands of thoughts may pass through our famous mind, but emotions are more likely to interfere.
