Emotional Need…….. HOW TO HANDLE YOUR EMOTIONS All of us experience a wide range of emotions in our lives. Usually, that's a good thing. But sometimes we have difficulty controlling our emotions, even to the point of letting our emotions control our behavior. Usually, that's not such a good thing. Here are some helpful suggestions for handling your emotions. Be honest with yourself. Talk to somebody about your feelings. Don't ignore your emotions, they are telling you something. If you are having an unpleasant feeling, think of something you can do that will help, and then do it. Find positive ways to express anger that are not hurtful to others. Remember, whatever you are feeling, you're not alone. Try not to get overwhelmed, things usually improve. If you do get overwhelmed—ask for help!
