    I don't know what's wrong with me but whenever I try to express my feelings or thoughts with someone I cry idk why but I just cry and my hands start shaking and I feel uneasy my breathing is uneven every time, even with my family and people close to me it always happens to me for some reason and I'm unable to say what I want to say it's like my voice is on mute I can't get anything out.

      Or, if someone has been hurt or shut down for a while, often all feelings come out as “cry” at first. Once we get better at identifying feelings, the more we talk about them and think about them , they come out less like an avalanche. It gets easier.

      It's a very voluntable position to be in. To express your feelings. It's scary because you are scared of what their reaction may be. Sometimes even when you tell then how to react to your feelings they will not automatically do as you say, and at that moment you should walk away before it escalates. But you must have faith that it will all work out in the end. If it does not and people cannot learn to accept your feelings then you must get away because it is not a healthy environment for anyone. Live your truth and you will be able to hold your space and hold space for others.

    I fell in love with this boy before the coronavirus. I cannot even express how much I love him. I cry about him almost everyday. My family is too strict so I can't really tell any one about him. Although my best friend knows what I'm going through. It's been 2 years since I've met him... I reached out to him and asked for some time so that we can talk. I am so scared to tell him everything that happened in these past 2 years. Knowing that someome will read this makes me relaxed and kinda better. And I really hope no one goes through the same thing.

    I really want to try and be brave and connect with others, but I’ve had so much rejection, invalidation and misunderstanding that I’ve kind of just given up.
    I keep it all to myself now and am very cautious of who I share my true feelings with.

      I think the starting point is allowing yourself to feel your emotions on all levels.
      The next step would be to start sharing your feelings with whoever you feel most comfortable sharing them with.
      And letting go of the emotional block one step at a time. At your own pace.

      I came here because my heart is heavy. My partner said “I just feel like I’m constantly defending myself with you”. So trying to understand why that is and I don’t mean to make him feel that way. Think it’s the way I express my opinions. I like what you said about telling others how to feel before going into a conversation.

    I'm terrified to share how I feel. Anytime I did as a kid I was shamed put down or made to feel like my feelings weren't valid or accepted by my family friends or relationships. My most recent ex would take my concerns and feelings and turn it into a fight. They'd call me crazy. But now I'm with someone I really want to be open and vulnerable with and it's so hard. I don't know how to do it. I don't know how to be open and honest without fear of how they'll react and if I'll be put down again.

      It's ok to dig through those emotions to get to the other side.
      Don't ignore them. Untangle them.
      Eventually they will start dissolving and you'll be able to explore more emotions.

    One thing i learned in life is no matter how you word things, other people may not be ready to listen and you'll end up disappointed. So you have to first gage if the person you are speaking your truth to is prepared to receive it. It's also best to find internal support, validation and love. The more we know we are complete, the less lonely we'll feel and the less
    dependent we'll be on others for understanding, support and validation. Eventually you won't care so much if someone understands you because you'll know you've developed a true connection to YOUR inner being, which is the true being that wants to be heard and seen. And you'll know that even though others may not be there to support you, the universe supports you.

    • @StacyRocklein
      @StacyRocklein  2 года назад +5

      I takes time to build a wall. When it's fresh you can just knock it down easily, but after it has dried up it's really tough to take it down. How many years did it take you to build it? Double that number, that's probably how long it's gonna take you to break it down. It's not easy, but it's not impossible. So how do you do it? Brick by brick, day by day. 💙

    I grew up in a family that does not really consider how emotions work rarely talk about it, I have lived my past four years not knowing whether I processed some emotions or just go as is on how fate works. I'm having a hard time processing and expressing my emotions especially in this time of pandemic lockdown. I have no problems accepting other people's reactions since I rarely processed my emotions, but now it seems like I fear of being critiqued on what I want to be on expressing them. I really don't know anymore and I'm afraid how to express and show these feelings to my few selected friends, I have a tough past though, its just I survived all these physical backlashes but the mental and psychological state of my mind keeps haunting me :/ .

      And I want you to know it's ok to feel that fear, because it is from fear that courage is born.
      This global situation is definitely affecting us all and the way we express/perceive emotions, but just be patient and take it one day at a time.

    i struggle so much with expressing my sadness or emotion to the point where family members think i am cold and insensitive. In reality, i am a very sensitive and emotional person. I also CANNOT cry for some reason in front of others. I have to be alone. Sometimes when i've cried because i am upset and then it's visible that i have cried, i pretend that i am not upset and that i've actually hurt myself like poked my eye or something, kind of stupid but yeah. The worst thing is when i really want or need to cry and other people are there, i clench my fists and sometimes pinch myself to stop the tears from coming. I feel like i bottle up my feelings so much to the point that i am afraid that i won't ever feel any emotions anymore or that if i am a little sad i will end up letting all of my past hurts come out and i will cry excessively.
    LOL i didn't expect to write that much, even if nobody reads or replies it felt kind of good to write it all out.

    • @StacyRocklein
      @StacyRocklein  3 года назад +6

      Crying is such a good thing! I'm serious, it is sooo healthy because it helps you release emotions.
      It doesn't mean you have to cry in front of people... but it's about the release. It's about YOU.
      And if your past hurst end up coming out, then you'll get the perfect chance to peel them off so they can't hurt you any more. Don't keep them inside. Let them out and get rid of them!

    I hold everything in. Literally and to others it may seem that i’m Obvlious or not catching on to what’s going on but I get so scared to respond but the only thing that’s doing is putting me back and not living true. It’s scary to be vulnerable and let others know you love them and keeps going without overthinking. I think the more I keep quiet the more i hurt others and hurt myself bc i’m the one who suffers with not expressing or feeling what i’m actually feeling to not hurt others, instead of helping i’m hurting them and myself. We’re all human with emotions and it’s okay.

    I love my family so much. but sometimes my family members think im ungrateful when I dont express emotions. Like if its something exciting I wont express excitement even though in my head, im extremely excited about it. I really want to and wish i could express emotion because they probably would feel more proud and happy, but I would feel weird doing it since i don’t do it often. I feel like when I dont show how excited I am they’re probably thinking how ungrateful I am or if they didn’t meet the standards I wanted. But that’s not true at all. Idk I feel out of place and I want to laugh with them. or them to laugh with me (If that makes any sense). I feel like im wasting my teen years acting like a fake version of myself around my family.

But I try to talk about my feelings and I start crying its not accompanied by any kind of emotion. Im mainly just embarrassed but it usually takes explaining how I feel out of the question. I can joke about how I feel but when its the honest straight up answer Im unable to talk without my throat closing up. Im pretty sure people get more worried about my tears than what im actually trying to tell them. Anything that other people say about how I may be feeling that hits the mark also makes me cry. I would like to talk to someone about it but I don’t even know why it’s happening.

    I have a best friend, and I fucking love her. Don't get me wrong, she's annoying as fuck, but still she is very supportive. She is also an introvert, like me. So once me and her were drinking tea, and I didn't want biscuits. She was eating happily, but I didn't want to. Its actually because people say im fat, my family, my so called friends. So I skipped breakfast and ate little in lunch. After finishing our tea, she asked me the whole day about why I didn't eat. I said that its nothing, but she knew better. She has known me for almost 10 years. She knows me. Then later I told her while walking, that it was kind of just because of people judging me and saying im fat. She asked me who said that, and then I said my grand father, grand mother, father and al my classmates. She knows me, I never loved myself, but I never hated myself so much. Now I do, and then she said that we should walk and go outside often. Now I want to be more open to her, and talk about my problems more. We both had fake friends, we talked about that. But I really want to open up to her because she is the only one I have. I really love her

    Yep, everybody asks me how I am so loud and happy but I’m not. The talking drowns out the pain. I can’t talk to my friends. I want to. But I can’t. I find it hard on its own to tell people personal things about myself like how I’m feeling or if I’m ok. I just can’t. They tell me that I can tell them but the words won’t come out. I see their names appear on my phone and I want to tell them so bad that I’m so done and that I want to tell them everything and cry on their shoulder while they tell me it’s ok. I’m crying my eyes out while trying to calm myself down. It doesn’t work anymore I just sit and it doesn’t stop. I want to someone. anyone. But I’m afraid they’ll tell me they don’t care or they won’t know what to say. I never know what to do when someone’s crying so it’s in the back of my mind that they don’t know what to do either. That they’ll just look at me and tell me their bad stuff. Like if I say I’m feeling rlly down they might just say same lol I’m depressed. I need someone to care about me. To comfort me no matter what. Through all of the bad. I miss everyone even though I see them almost everyday. They need to know. But I just can’t say. I can’t.

      Charlie, you can transform that fear into courage 💙
      Just imagine how happy you're gonna feel when you open up to someone!
      I know you're affraid of what they might say or think, but trust me, people have more layers than you think.
      And if they end up saying something you already expected them to say... they're just not the right person to talk to.
      And you can move on to find the right one.
      Keep in mind there's almost 8 billion people in the world.

    However, as an Ayurvedic doctor, I can say that, explicitly expressing emotions for a long time can do more harm than good. For example, Ayurveda mentions 4 emotions that affects digestion - Sadness, Overthinking, Fear, Anger and expressing these emotions explicitly can lead to digestion related issues. And according to Ayurveda, every disease is due to a bad Agni a.k.a gut health. So to take care of your health, one must have control over one’s emotions.

    • @StacyRocklein
      @StacyRocklein  2 года назад

      I so agree with you! I think it's knowing the difference between feeling and communicating when necessary (healthy) and when you're manufacturing emotions with your "story" and/or repressing so they get trapped in your body (unhealthy). What do you think?

    Great video. I will definitly try the 'tell others what I expect'-part.
    Problem for me most of the time is I cannot name my feelings. Not sure if its Alexythymie or not.
    The other way around I am pretty quickly overwelmed by the emotions of other people. My default is a complet shutdown (dont move, dont say anything, etc.), which in turn is interpreted as ignorance.
    By the time I processed the feelings of my relevant other the conversation is over already.

This isn't an ability we're just born with, you learn how to show up for someone.

      I think it's normal to feel this way. You can't control the first though/feeling, but you can control the next one. Learning to manage your emotions and expectations should help you in the future.

      It's normal to be affraid, but you can choose to transform that fear into courage.
      Go with whatever you heart tells you. Do you feel ready?

    Hi, I'm in love with a guy and I also confessed directly to him one year ago, I'm sure he too likes me, but he's hesitant to say that he has feelings for me. He always asks me to wait for the perfect time.., but I feel so lovesick, whereas he behaves so normally and text me usually as he does always.. How can I know what actually he thinks of me? Kindly help!

      Hi Jemima, i think the best way is by asking him. But try to help him by telling him what kind of answer you expect, and that you would understand if he thinks this is not the right moment for you two. This is gonna help you both understand each other so you don't have to feel weird about it anymore.
      Be ready for whatever answer he gives you, even if it is not what you expect.
      But no matter what it is, just be ok with it.
      That's true love 💙
