emotiona are only wrong when they are out of control

You mind should be the master of your emotions. Your spirit should be the master of your mind.

It seems to me that you are trying to be too zen when not showing any emotions. But the thing is, emotions are natural. You are an animal, and the way you naturally operate INCLUDES emotions. My oppinion of "the right way to live" is to live natural, the way the universe works. Along with the tao, if u know what i mean. This includes emotions.  :2cents:

Sounds like you told yourself feeling emotions was wrong and so you shut down some energy centers and now you have blocks causing back up pressure, and that pressure is what is making you feel tormented and wanting to cry but can't. The pressure squishing things tightly is causing the numb feeling too

Re-opening what you closed yourself up to is not an easy thing to do either.

It'll take some dedication and discipline on your part.

First understand the the ability to feel e-motions (energy in motion) and the energy itself are two different things. You are not your emotions either. You are the observer, generator, experiencer, feeler, interpreter, channel of energy.

The first step to opening up again is for you to think of emotion as just energy with information, like music with lyrics. When you feel emotions, be the listening observer of them. Let your self feel them objectively, ask them, what it is they are telling you. Get the information from them that they hold. They give insight into what we are thinking, how we are thinking and most importantly how those thoughts are effecting our health and lives.

Lousy emotions= lousy thoughts. When you identify the sponsoring thought, change it to one more supportive of you. Then feel for the change of emotion. Keep working at identifying the sponsoring thought and a more appropriate supportive thought until, you feel a good emotion.

Like I said, it will take dedication and a commitment from you to allow yourself to not only open up again, but to learn how to keep vigilant of thoughts-and how they make you feel. In time, if you stick with it, you will be an ace at generating feel good energy flowing within yourself that is really supportive of your vital being.

You can do it!  :sun:

:peace: :heart:

Your so welcome!

It will become easy once you pay close attention to taking care of them.

Like if you notice yourself feeling sad feelings, don't think of yourself as being sad. Recognize, that you are just feeling sad music with sad lyrics. Ask yourself, "what sad thoughts am I thinking? " FIND THEM! Change them regarding the situation they are over to seeing it from a bright side. FIND The bright side. It's always there. make one up if you can't find it. Nurture those thoughts and soon enough you will be saying, "Ahhhhh I feel good again."

Nipping lousy emotions in the bud is the key. Thats why, at first it will be difficult. You may have a ton of blocked up energy related to thoughts that are now stuffed away too.

You may have some unraveling to do at first. You can do that though. Let yourself sit in a lousy emotion and feel around in it for what it is trying to tell you about things you were thinking. Be patient and mostly, when you catch a thought that is the probable sponsor, don't justify it if it doesn't support you or the lousy emotion will remain. A lot of people do that and stay STUCK in the shits and not knowing why.

It makes NO sense to support and justify thoughts that do not support your greatest good.

Catch yourself putting up blocks to bad ones when they start surfacing. Let them run through you and you'll release them more quickly. Listen to them as the go by. If you work at this and make it a daily practice to stay in tune with paying attention to them, and your thoughts, you'll get into a habit of thinking thoughts that feel good all of the time.

:peace: :heart:

Emotions are emotions, interpretations of emotions can... and often do go awry... but emotions themselves are neutral, neither good nor bad.

Emotions are simply information, acknowledge them, and move on.

Dwelling on emotions is a futile, and often dark, depressing road.

For example, dwelling on love can be either a good, great, bad, neutral experience, but it changes nothing.

I NEVER said to express them OJ style. Why did you make that reply to me?:crazy:

Expressing what you are feeling verbally and letting a negative emotion (energy in motion) control your physical actions, when they are looking for a way to release themselves from pressure, are two different things.

I suggested paying attention to them, listening to them, finding the sponsoring thought of lousy feeling ones and then changing it to a thought that will generate emotions that are more pleasant to feel and to be moved by into constructive positive actions that support general good well being.

Skorp is one of the greatest objectivist here and has repeatedly called me such a happy person he finds it nauseating. It's true, I do feel really good most all of the time since I learned to do what I suggested.

OJ serves as a GREAT example of what can happen when people DON'T do that.  :thumbdown:

I didnt realize the seriousness of this thread at first, had to actually dedicate some time into it. Then I realised that I have also been through the same sort of emotional torment before and that this guy is definately going through some hell and I got more interested. To me this seems alittle deeper then emotion though, might even play into the supernatural, playing into that reality sort of. The main thing is to remember that these times pass and you will recover your self again, emotionally, because you care enough to do smothing about it...right? If your a person who needs answers, then do that...Find them and process them, but use them or else you are defeating the purpose of sharing your experience. Keep praying, but redirect them, acknowledge your demons and release them. That was the only thing that worked for me. Over power your feelings of helplessness and realize that the choas inside is like a passing storm. (Poetically inspiring??)


gettinjiggywithit - Seriously, thanks for that personal insight. I really learned alot through your explanations, which are very well presented. None of these multi factioned linguistic puzzles some people use eh? I see positivity as a very important personal quality in people. Though, me and you are bound by seperate ties, I can appriciate it...so can you.
