How do you manifest your emotions?

[Tiredofhurting]

I will get irrationally angry. It is not as bad as it use to be but I generally used my anger as my outlet. I would do things that a normal person would not. Like walk across a tree that fell across the river. Just an example of many thing I have done to cope. It is almost as if I push the envelope to see if I will die. I am just having a tough day and my old emotions are coming through.

Most emotions I feel these days are negative, and I bottle everything I can up. I very, very rarely get angry. Even when I guess I should be mad, it just kind of turns inward and is more like sadness at the end.

 

[BeansOfRequirement]

Used to cry occasionally or hit concrete walls. Now I am going to repress my emotions and toughen up just because they are not entertaining anymore. The whole "emotions give you strength" thing is garbage. Oh, and I guess it goes without saying that I never have any positive emotions (aside from laughter/humour).

 

[FuneralCry]

These days, I feel an large absence of emotion. I feel an deep emptiness within me. I spend a lot of time trapped within my own thoughts, and when I occasionally get these moments of sadness, I just internally reflect on it. I don't use any physical release, all the pain just stays within my mind.

I used to take out all my anger on my punching bad and it really worked.

Now, when my emotions are out of control, I just listen to music, drink alcohol or have some cigarettes.

Scream and shout usually, or make holes in walls then cry.

And alcohol helps you in such a situation?
For me it was then rather worse - no fear but the emotions became even stronger ...

I'm annoyed and mad all the time. There's nothing I can do about it but walk away and go to sleep.

Yeah, alcohol affects each person in a different way.
As for me, I just get happy, say silly things and dance! I even forget I'm suicidal lol.

That's sounds it's like medicine ... ;-)
But I also think that it depends a lot on the quantity.

Breaking things, hitting myself... I gave myself a black eye several times, I ripped my hair few times... One time I cut my long hair out of frustration.

I've numbed out my feelings recently. Not much if any emotions are there rt now. I'm lucky to be able to do this.
