How To Cope When You Are Struggling With Raw Emotions

By Anna Stewart


Everyone has emotions that they carry around with them. However, there are folks who are able to control these emotions. It may be some anger or sadness. Stress is often the cause of this. On the other hand, really raw emotions are not always able to be controlled. It can be part of the personality, the genes and the makeup, a disorder or when there is so much stress in the life of the individual.

Carrying these types of emotions around with can be a real burden. Unfortunately, there are people who are not even aware that they are coping with the anger or the frustration due to the lack of frustration boiling up inside of them. Many people simply accept this as part of their emotional state.

There are always solutions to these scenarios. It can be emotionally draining when you constantly have outbursts or you don't know how to be assertive. It can lead to the breakup of many relationships. People will have a difficult time communicating. It will affect you in your place of work. It is really not worth bottling these emotions up inside.

This type of therapy has helped kids who have been battling with depression and anger. It has also helped people who are much older and struggling with many emotions as a result of trauma or grief. It can be because of something traumatic or it can be just because this is part of your personality.

Although there are people who will get angry a lot of the time, there are also those who seem to keep quiet. Many people think that an individual like this is happy to go with the flow. They assume that they simply don't complain, but they are actually boiling up inside and are unable to express their emotions.

Psychologists and counsellors will work in different ways depending on a number of factors. Some of them will help the client by inviting other family members into the sessions. This is a good way of getting to the heart of the matter. Often, couples don't know how one another is feeling. It is the responsibility of someone in therapy to take the responsibility and make the effort during this time.

People who are more introverted will need to look into techniques whereby they are able to come out of their shell. Sometimes, they would have suffered from trauma in their childhood. A psychologist is often able to witness the signs and symptoms of someone like this. In a case like this, it is important to refer the individual to therapy which is specialized and more intensive.

Often, people come to therapy and are feeling guilty or shameful. It is natural to feel this way because everyone is human. However, folks don't have anything to be ashamed about. The fact is that some people will have emotions which more developed than others and play a big role in their lives. Nobody is to blame because of this. This is all part of the process where one learns to let go. There are times when this can be a challenge, but it can also be hugely rewarding.
